Spectacular day for an LVDA show at the stunning Rhythmandbluesequestriancenter! Elizabeth Pepper and Pella delivered a remarkable First 3 Test, capturing 🥈place with 65% score. Sara Witt and Myles had a fluid warm-up, but there are some areas to refine in the show arena. Nevertheless, they're moving in the right direction with determination! I'm thrilled to see these teams excel and grow over the past year, it's been an honor to guide them. 🌻🔥
