Wow, Week III at Thermal was a home run for the team!!\u00a0 I’m already hoping I don’t leave anything out, but here is some of the best..
\nShelley and Kohala were ….. AMAZING! Of the six classes they won 3 firsts and 3 seconds in\u00a0the Green Conformation which\u00a0netted the pair not only the Week III Championship<\/span>but contributed to the hugely prestigious Mid Circuit Championship as well. Speaking of Mid Circuit Champions, Madison Cameron and Legatus are leading the circuit with the Mid Circuit Championship in the Equitation 16-17 and a third in both the USEF Medal and the ASPCA Maclay- Great Job!!\u00a0 Maggie Dennis\u00a0and Greyscale are looking like a finished product, blending together into a beautiful team with a fourth place finish in the USEF Medal, a win in the Junior Hunters\u00a0and culminating with\u00a0winning the Large Jr Hunter Classic this past Sunday.\u00a0<\/span>Diane\u00a0Laycoe and Final Act were\u00a0DC III Champions in the Adult Hunters 56\u00a0and over, while Bryan Laycoe and Locaro Z were Reserve.\u00a0 Great Laycoe domination!\u00a0 My favorite class was when Diane, Zizi Zell and Bryan\u00a0were 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the AA Hunters! Not to be forgotten, the amazing Zizi, who arrived wk 3 and simply rode into the show ring and won her 1st class of 2011 on Adam-12. Kathy Waldorf and Penny Lane jumped in the Adult Equitation 2′ and Modified Adult\u00a0Hunter\u00a0taking home the Reserve Championship in both.\u00a0 Pretty\u00a0fantastic since\u00a0Kathy has not jumped a course in 8 years!\u00a0Seems long-winded, but I can’t leave out the huge value of the ‘Thermal Experience’ for the learning curve of all of\u00a0our riders.\u00a0Jane Hood improved out of the pastel ribbons and into the primary colors, Stephanie Haralabatos won the Under Saddle, Alexandra Ulmer had victories in both equitation and jumpers, and Kimberly Bruce\u00a0debuted as an Oz rider and jumped the 3’0″ for the first time!\u00a0<\/p>\n

On the other side of the fence in the jumper venues, Zenon and I\u00a0won in the Level 4 and finished off the first half with the Mid Circuit Reserve Championship Level 4 Jumper. Red Legend is a true show horse. He and\u00a0I\u00a0 had terrific, consistent finishes\u00a0bringing home\u00a0good paychecks. Lea Snyder and Hakuna Matada jumped the very difficult High Amateur Owner Jumpers.\u00a0 Lea had a great tour and is really riding well (not just because of the new stirrups:) we’ll really miss her during this 2nd half.\u00a0Mary Masterson and Glory\u00a0are models of consistency. Their\u00a0times get faster and faster (with a little gentle prodding) and\u00a0the pair finished off the first half with a good paycheck in the $4,000 Low Jr\/AO Jumper Classic.<\/p>\n

We’ll keep you posted…..
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Many thanks for the most enjoyable 1st half ever!\u00a0 Jeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
