Hacienda Los Encinos is SO proud of our team of horses and riders that represent us in USDF Region 9 Championships SWDC and GAIG!!

Results:

🏆London Do Vouga and Jorge Arauz Dressage won both GAIG and SWDC Championships in Intermediate II🥇 🥇 owner Dulce Diaz Borjas.

🏆Marqués DC and Jorge won the SWDC in Fourth level 🥇with a score of 69.16%

Cantinero Los Encinos our 7yr old participate in both championships in PSG. Did not have his best weekend, apparently his youth and being his second show in PSG got him too excited, but even though he had some beautiful moments. He is young and we know he has a great future coming.

Last but not least, our new client Shawna and her PRE Yuste competed in the Third level championships having some very nice moments and with room for improvement, they placed 5th🍾

We will like to give a BIG thanks to our sponsor: Antarès Sellier - Coach Antonio Cid and our amazing clients! Thank you for all your support!

🏆Festival of Champions 2024🏆 An amazing experience!
Cantinero Los Encinos and Jorge ended up 4️⃣th place‼️in the Overall National Championship FEI 7 years old division.
On the second day, they did a beautiful Final test that propelled them into 4th place with a score of 72.32%, being less than one point away from the top 3!!! (Yes,it was a very tight scoring that made everything just so exciting 🙈)

Being so close to the medals made us very proud, specially with an Iberian horse competing against warmbloods.
The most rewarding thing to us was all the nice things that the judges said about Cantinero, and how our special Cantinero managed to transmit so much to the spectators and judges✨✨

Thank you everyone for all the support!! Really grateful for our village 🤍
