Autumn Classic might have been our busiest show of the year! Everyone wanted to come enjoy the fun at the end of the year!
π Ottocorrect and Jody got back in the show ring, finishing Champion in the USHJA 2'3" Hunters and the Low Adult Hunters!
π Canello and Lauren not only won every jumper class they rode in, but finished 6th in the $250 Outreach Derby Challenge!
π Rosabella and Sarah could only come on the weekend, but they won 3 out of 4 of their .95m Jumpers!
π Weasley aka "Wes,"--OFFERED FOR SALE--came for the weekend with Charlotte, helping her win Champion in the SAHJA Jr/Am 2'9" Equitation and 7th in the $250 Outreach Derby Challenge!
π Edessa's Hummer aka "Hummer,"--OFFERED FOR SALE--only came to us for a week before we thought that Makenna would have fun on him! Makenna did a great job learning a new horse and Hummer was a simple rockstar, the two of them winning some great ribbons in all their classes!
π Charlotte--OFFERED FOR SALE--became a last minute partner for Abby, who needed something to ride for the show and the Horse & Hound Medal Finals! They helped each other through some competitive classes, finishing Champion in the Adult Amateur Hunters and Top 10 in the Horse & Hound Jr/Am Medal finals!
π Champagne des Rosier Z, aka "Champ,"--OFFERED FOR SALE--really impressed us! His past has been in jumpers, so we schooled him to some good ribbons in the .95m, but then he got braided for the rated Amateur Equitation with Lauren, and then paired up with Amy to show his versatility in the SAHJA Low Open and J/Am Hunters!
π Chasan 3, aka "Conan,"--OFFERED FOR SALE--started his week winning in the USHJA 2'9" hunters before getting ridden for the first time by Lauren! They had a beautiful $1,500 FoxFarms Jr/Am Derby round in the dark and finished Champion in the Ch/Ad 2'9" Hunters!
π Dark Echo and Andrea were ready to step up to the 2'9" HJunters, finishing Champion in the division!
π Mulroy Lad and Audrey got a little practice in the .85m jumpers before getting good ribbons in the Pony Hunters, and then Maddie hopped on him to not only qualify for the Horse & Hound Pony Medal, but they won the 2nd round and finished Reserve Champion in the finals!
π Jacamo Blue and Maddie learned a lot and won some good ribbons in the 1.00m Jr/Am Jumpers!
π Livarot la Tulipe and Maddie finish the year strong, and after winning Reserve Champion in the USHJA 3' Hunters, they finished the Horse & Hound Jr/Am Medal finals Top 10 and 7th in the $1,500 FoxFarms Jr/Am Hunter Derby!
π Convaro and AJ continue to impress, after winning Champion in the Children's Hunters and 4th in the $1,500 FoxFarms Jr/Am Hunter Derby, they finished 1st and 2nd in the two rounds of the Horse & Hound Jr/Am Medal finals to win Champion of the whole thing!
π Lumiere de Lune and Nicole continue their consistency in the 1.10m jumpers and finished Champion in the division!
