And we have a winner!
JJ’s got it for sure, Sydney second by my count.

I don’t think elegance of position will come into play this year.

I would not want to be the judges right now, sorting out the placings below 1st and likely 2nd.

Tough for the bottom 3 - Liv, Ariana, and Adriana all really fudging the test. Maddie also had a big error. I think Sydney will move way way up.

I can make Olivia and Ariana go the other way but the test did sort them.
Ok I can make my testing point now. I guess it’s a good thing the rules are written to determine whether or not testing is required, because year in and year out everything beyond that seems to get convoluted.
I would have:
JJ
Sydney
Maddie
Ariana

These horses are such triers. They’re just lovely.

Maddie biffed both her counter canters and didn’t hand gallop.
Olivia had a meh hand gallop and biffed one counter canter.
Ariana showed a change of pace for the hand gallop and biffed one counter lead, and came in higher.
I just love that this class is done early enough that I can go ride my other horse and it’s not dark out! Yay!

Did they really dress the riders in 7th through 12th outside the ring?
Looks that way. Disappointing.
Ahh I did mix up Maddie
Well that’s a bummer. I know y’all want to get home after a long day and all the horses want their braids out, but come on, give these kids their due in the ring.
