Highlights from Mustang Powder Horse Trials

5/27/2016

Comments

 
Lanzelot Eventing riders arrived in a convoy of 8 horse trailers on Thursday afternoon - the large crew had riders in every division.  It was a wet, muddy weekend - it rained, and rained some more, then just when we packed up to leave - it rained again.  Most of the paddocks had tents strapped to them and every tack up included a game-time decision of whether or not to screw in studs. 

Performance highlights:

  • Kendall and Ridley showed a sign of things to come from this new pair with amazing dressage performances and 2nd place overall in Combined score
  • Mia rocked all the jumping courses – with no jumping or time faults all weekend and finished 6th in both events
  • Sara and Tango went beautifully in the first event and finished in 2nd place
  • Zoe was happy for the second go round and finished in 8th place with only their dressage score in the second event
  • Emmy was burned by Nick’s old-school technical flags in the 1st go-round – but did a great job on Strella for a 3rd place finish in the second event.  Her second horse trials ever.
  • Stanley showed his true colours as an impeccable athlete – he and Savannah won both events and Combined score in the Entry class.  What a great way for Savannah to finish her first complete horse trials.
  • Ari Gold was the consummate gentleman and took Jayne around for a successful weekend with 4th and 2nd place finishes

The Holmes-Smiths and Rowans were excellent hosts – with socials and campfires and a beautifully run event.  There were constantly fixing the footing on the cross-country course to keep it safe and the free wine and beer (and someone brought ‘schnapps’ too) helped keep us all warm.  It was a fantastic start to the 2016 show season!
