And the winners...

The awards ceremony was done right after the last competitor went. Lots of ceremony - and lots of awards! The competitors came out mounted and dressed up, and the presenters were dressed well, as were the grooms. 

 Andrew Nicholson from New Zealand won the competition on Quimbo- finishing on his dressage score. That's a huge accomplishment! Also, his groom won the prize for "best groom".
 Gin and Juice with Hawley Bennett-Asad from Canada placed 7th - and another award for the highest place young rider.
 Bruce Davidson aboard Ballymoe Castle placed 4th - and yet another award for the highest placed American rider.
Will Faudree on Pawlow - another American - placed 6th.

Andrew Nicholson placed both first on Quimbo and 3rd with Calico Joe.
William Fox-Pitt placed 2nd with Seacookie.
Buck Davidson placed 4th with Ballymoe Castle RM and 9th with Mar De Amor.
Lynn Symansky on Donner placed 5th... and won best conditioned horse.
Will Faudree and Pawlow were 6th - and did you know, the Americans riding in red coats - means they have ridden for the American team in international events. It's a well earned right!
Gin and Juice with Hawley Bennett-Asad was 7th.
R-Star and Kristi Nunnink placed 8th - and she's a rookie!
And Kate's favorite to cheer on, Peter Atkins and Henry Jota Hampton aka "Hennie" placed 10th.
