Hunter/Jumper show


 The hunter/jumper schooling show was well attended by several competitors at the barn. Lots of work preparing horse and riders. Lots of work getting the horses prettied up!
  


Friday, Taylor took Indee over to school before the show as he has the least amount of experience in this realm. He proved himself to be just as relaxed about it all as he is at home, nice surprise. Schooled over the flowery jumps, which were a little scary, but the wash racks were the scariest yet! Managed to get it done, and cleaned up that muddy horse back to white!
Taylor did a terrific job in the classes too, not quite winning  hunter round ready yet, but at least she got him over the fences. She did place well in the flat class.



Alyssa took Tucker in her first classes and did a fantastic job. Went right over all the jumps in good rhythym and got her canter leads perfectly in the flat class. Great fun.
Rosa took both Apollo and Maximus in some jumper classes and piloted around both horses well. That's a big job, taking in 2 horses back to back!

Mason rode Wally in her first show and placed well in the poles and cross bar classes and flat classes.
Lauren and Wiley tackled the jumper classes. Had a blast, won a bunch of ribbons!
Katie took Toby to his first outing also. Found out Toby has a real phobia of being in the ring all by himself... hummm, some homework to do there. She did manage to get him around by the end of the show tho. Placed really well in the flat classes.

And Elana took Indee in the poles, cross bar and flat classes, did really well. Won lots of ribbons!

Sydney took Radie and Demi in the hunter classes to see how that went. She had them looking very nice and she too won ribbons with both horses.

Fun show for all!
