Flintridge dressage show
So the 10 horses came back to Mill Creek yesterday after, some really good days at the Flintridge dressage show!
The show ran well, and the rings had good footing. Cornerstone dressage are in charge of this show, and I think I have been there for the last 25 years!! WOW!!!
So it feels home to bring horses and clients to this show! So I'm planning on to be back next year again!
This time; I rode 4 horses. My great Finally won both GP and GPS. He was really good, but sure enough I had to have two bubbles in the GP, that was so sad, because it was so unnecessary!! Other then that everything I normally think is hard worked super. I'm so glad I had two good rides on him.
Sokrates also called Sox, did his first PSG and Int 1. I won both PSG and Int one. The last time he was out (once in Florida) I rode third level, so this was a great leap forward. He is so fun to ride, and he has so much more to give, I'm absolutely not there yet! So cool!!!
Hertzregent my 6 year old did Third level. He thinks in the test:.....MOM I know, I know, so he gets a little exited about his changes, and after that he looses his relaxation. What to do??? Great horse, I just have to wait him out. He was placed twice in second place. Another Cool horse!!!
Acilla is a mare that belongs to Anne Solbrakke. A very talented horse, that I showed for the first time. I did third level, and she won 2, and was second in one. Her scores were high, so keep on looking for her in the future. She handle everything so well, and I'm so proud of her. She will be (is) great!
My student Anna Dahlberg with her own and home bred Lourdes, Anja Ibsen with Cory Walkey's Coby, was really on a go! Not only did they take care of me, my horses, my clients and all the rest...They also rode well. Both girls rode third level. Both won, and if they didn't; they were second. Beautiful test, great scores and very clean! Great job! Anna also rode Terry Holbrook's mare Nana of Nobel, in second level. Again wins and well executed tests. Very pretty!
Tracy Ryan rode Piet. The first day was a tuff one. Second day really good and the third day a very nice test! Tracy rode PSG and that is not always so easy!! Sometimes you need to ask the judge: if you could just come one more time, because you know you can do it better..BUT... it is what it is!! We are all in the same boat, but it's still hard sometimes. We keep the last day! Tracy was placed and did really good!
Adrienne Bessey rode her two horses Di Do and Winston. Dido did PSG and won!!!Great scores in a good group of other riders! So much fun!!
In the developing test, just like PSG they ended up 4th. Still very good. Beautiful pair, great future...This is only the beginning. Just wait.
Winston did Int 1. Pretty tests, and better then before ,and you can tell that Adrienne is very "hungry" to get the job done! She is ready!!
I also have to mention Roberto! What a super good man, that worked and worked to make it all perfect! He took care of 10 horses from early morning to late afternoon, and then back again! Love you so much, and a BIG Thanks' from all of us.
And last but not least: Jenna that had to stay home and take care of the horses and client's that did not go to the show! All went perfect! I love to come back to the barn after a show or clinic, when everything is clean, organized and well taken care of! You did it! Thanks!
