Ireland day 2

Yesterdays xc ride was wild...nothing was out of the question...ditches, banks, walls, gates, barbed wire...or some combination thereof.

Today was decidedly more relaxed, we traveled around the country looking @ horses. Found a few that might suit.

Tomorrow were headed out hunting in stone wall country. Check back for some pix along the way!

On the Ground

Running Order

I just got a very exciting email this morning from the USET. It stated that Running Order is now on the Developing Rider list. This will allow us to attend the team training sessions this spring as well as access to coaching and grants throughout the year. This is the first step to international team competition.

Correction

I just checked the final results online...Andy finished in 3rd rather than 2nd

Driving Home from the Last Event of '09

Virginia HT was as usual a great event. Weather left some to be desired today...got wet on xc for the third event in a row. All of the horses were great.

The weekend started out with the Future Event Horse series championship. Tribute won not only among the 3 year olds but among all of the horses presented, yearlings, 2 year olds and 3 year old mare/fillies and colts/geldings. Tribute is owned by Kristin Burgers and it looks like he'll be around for a long time. I'm very excited about his potential.

LeRoy, owned by Sandy Freeman, once again won this weekend in prelim. Frolic owned by Annie Eldridge also won his training division.

Andy owned by Becky Storniolo finished 2nd as did Simon (SNS Syndicate) in their training divisions.

Tali finished 3rd, Charm owned by Cindy Strate finished 5th both in training.

Indy in his 3rd intermediate finished 6th.

We'll have a little down time...some local jumper shows will be on tap...

Aiken will again be the start of the season for 2010. Click on over for more info if you'd like to take part. Its shaping up to be a very exciting time to be involved.
