What a way to end the season for our Performance Show Team!
For our final show of the year, we tried something new and headed to the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington for the Kentucky Fall Classic Horse Show and we came home with so many moments we’ll remember for a long time.
One of the biggest highlights was Paisley and Philly stepping into a walk-trot-canter class for the very first time. Apparently, they both discovered that they LOVE to canter! They even earned a 4th place ribbon against a big group of Saddlebreds, which made the moment that much sweeter.
Adri had a pretty awesome weekend too. She showed Melissa for the first time, and after working so hard all season, she finally got to reap the benefits of that dedication with an awesome and exhilarating drive. She also showed Kyah, had a wonderful drive, and brought home a 2nd place ribbon!
And Ella WON her academy class! Ella and Phil have one of the sweetest bonds I have ever seen, and it was so special for their last show of the season to give everyone a chance to see just how much those two trust and love each other.
A huge congratulations also goes to Mia and Reggie, who earned a nice ribbon in a very competitive class against some seriously accomplished horses and riders, including world champions.
And of course, Cameryn and Sydney gave us an exciting ride on probably the most competitive-attitude horse we have. Sydney never makes anything boring, and Cameryn handled her with great confidence.
This show was such a good reminder that success isn’t always just about the ribbon. Sometimes it’s trying something new, finally seeing months of hard work pay off, getting the ride you’ve been waiting for, or realizing just how far a horse-and-rider partnership has come.
We are so proud of this team and everything they accomplished this season. What a way to finish. 💙💛
