2024 Maclay Final Thread

A swap in the HG and a bit fidgety in the halt. Otherwise, lovely.

In 2023. That’s where it was.

I’m not sure I liked his first turn through the gap. It was smooth, but a bit odd.

Well done Christian.

I liked Christian’s a lot. I like that he didn’t bang the horse straight to the halt but let him canter away and softly, sympathetically said “hey let’s pause a minute here.” The inside turn was well done.

So disappointed in the hand gallops so far.

He stood like a statue when she asked for the halt, though.

Christian made an attempt. There was a change of stride. I didn’t really see it from the other two.

Hopefully they look better in person…

Adriana was lovely.

I thought Maddie showed the biggest.

Correction: Taylor coming flying in!

Way to go Adriana! That was beautifully done.

Great riders and special horses. :blush:

I feel like the moral of the Eq Finals story will forever be GALLOP FOR THE LOVE, GALLOP.

Pin them the same way they came back.

Maddie tried, but had two swaps in there.

Good solid tests all around, no disasters. Good day!

And Taylor went for it, nice way to gallop out to the first jump.
