Looking back on 2 amazing weeks With participation In 2 major Championships.
First I had the honor to be on the 🇩🇰 danish amateur team at the FEQHA European Team Cup 2024 for amateur and youth teams.
We had a great danish team - supporting each other and having a lot of fun.
I am very proud of my horse HA Yellow Emperor AQHA/APHA aka “Kejser” (danish Word for Emperor). In just around 1 year he has had to learn many new disciplines - Showmanship - Horsemanship - Ranch Riding - Ranch Trail - Ranch Rail.
We ended up with the following results
🥇 GOLD Amateur Ranch Trail
🥈 SILVER Amateur Ranch Riding
🥉BRONZE Amateur Western Horsemanship
5th place Amateur Trail
6th place Amateur Showmanship
8th place Amateur Western Pleasure
🥉 Danish Amateur team bronze
🥈 Danish Youth Team Silver
We where only home for 3 full days - then of to the very nice facility Vilhelmsborg for the Open danish Paint Horse Championship. This was a 4 judge show.
We did not come close to our ability In Showmanship and Western Horsemanship and lots of things to work on 🤪😬. But we nailed it in the Ranch Classes with the following results:
🥇 Champion Amateur Ranch Rail (1st by all 4 judges)
🥇 Champion Open Ranch Rail (1st by all 4 judges)
🏵️ Winner Open Ranch Rail Jackpot
🥇Champion Amateur Ranch Riding
🥇Champion Open Ranch Riding
🏵️ Winner Open Ranch Riding Jackpot
🥈Reserve Champion Amateur Ranch Trail
🥈 Reserve Champion Open Ranch Trail
2nd place Open Ranch Trail Jackpot
