Just returned home from NIHJA Medal Finals at the beautiful HITS Lamplight. We all had a great show!
Mackenzie Smither made her showing debut on LREC’s O’Shea (aka Tripp) in the short stirrup division coming home with some great ribbons, even scoring a 79 in the classic round. We look forward to seeing her again in the near future in the show ring!
Rachel Lubben made her comeback after a small hiatus from the show ring with her own horse Dagon. Earning some top ribbons and laying down some great rounds.
Paulina Struk and her own Maverick had another great showing, earning another championship in the combined jumper division. These two just keep getting better and better each show. Congratulations! 🎊
Lynaea Ekstrom made her show debut with her new partner, Mirocco Blue. Laying down some solid rounds. Keep an eye for this pair, there are great things to come from this team!
Volha Yukho and her young mare, Ventimiglia EH continue to gain valuable experience in the jumpers laying down some solid clear rounds. Watch out for her in the 5 year old jumpers next year, she’s going to be a serious contender!
Elizabeth Agular made It back into the show ring again & showed LREC’s Bond in the training jumpers, Although this pair is very new to each other, they were a great pair together. We look forward to seeing them again in the show ring again soon!
And last, but certainly not least. Paulina Kociolek brought her new youn mare, Simone for a little camping trip. This young mare went around and jumped everything like an old veteran. I know they’re gonna rock in 2026!
Congratulations to everyone, and thank you to everyone for coming out and showing your support to all your fellow barn mates. Onward and upward to the 2026 show season! 🐴🏆🥇
Also a special thank you to Laura Sweet for your awesome photos!
