“I can’t believe you’re not crying. You need to cry.” Bahahaha hot mic.
Including schooling and other prep, it’s probably been a 13-16 hour day for all of these top kids, trainers, and horses. Press conference on TOP of that. Wowee.

This website has a cool table they update. Lillie won or was reserve at all 5:
Yes, and Victoria Colvin also won 3/4. But she’s definitely joined those two as well. What a wild (and excellent!) Fall she’s had

Carlee won both and is trained by Max and TJ along with a slew of others.
I was just about to post that site. It is great, but it can turn into a huge rabbit hole. Lol.
I do love the fact that they’ve included the names of the horses as much as possible.
Ugh poor judges having to answer questions right now
TIL Logan (of Brianne fame) was ridden by Lillie as well.

How does Lookabill still have so much energy
Top three are Texas girls! So proud of them for representing us so well. All three are also trained by Texas trainers (with help of course from some greats), but it’s so exciting to be able to “bring that home” for the junior riders to come!
Yes, I was thinking of the USET. Oops.
With coffee, all things are possible.

Love hearing Carlee say that her horse makes her brave. Sounds like such a sweet relationship.
I wonder if these top trainers ever have their kids do media training. These three seem well-prepared.

Thinking of the logistics again, I wonder if they had all those cards printed up with names in advance, or if somebody had to run into the office and do it as soon as they found out the results. Lol.
I did find out the answer to my earlier question about the logistics of the course build during one of the drag break interviews with the course designer. He started at 3:20 this morning, joined shortly afterwards by the jump crew. Yikes.

Huge smiles for Caroline and the Hesslink Williams team. Her horse, though… he says it’s well past bedtime thank you very much.

It’s funny, because the first time Rachel judged this class some years back, she barely said a word at the press conference and let the other judge do all the talking. Lol.

Also, let’s take a moment to note that the top three are all girls. Yay!!!
