Maclay finals

Kat Fuqua also had a nice, smooth round!

So was that Charisma that Skylar rode? I think maybe it was.

yes

Yup.

I do love her on Famous, but I’m glad he gets a break.

Thanks.

I wish they would mention at least the names of the horses. Even though the class is judged on the rider, the horses deserve some recognition.

I feel like I have been watching Stella W forever and I think that’s the best round I have seen her put in.

I feel like they did last year. I remember one with the show name of Charlie and one with the name Brownie.

I think they did at Medal Finals?

What a bummer for Ellie. Wasn’t really aware of her until WIHS, but what a great rider.

To me, they should always mention the horse’s name, at least at the finals.

You can be the best rider in the world, but without the horse, you’re just another person standing by the ingate holding your saddle.

You’d also think since it’s a class based on Horsemanship they would acknowledge the horse.

There’s that, too. Lol.

I think the only horse’s name I’ve heard so far today is Jamaica when they were talking about Luke’s win at Harrisburg.

Except Ava just mentioned Waldo going around with Avery Glynn, the gray horse who won with Sam Walker, I believe.

What happened with Ellie?

Emma’s mom Dana used to help me on ponies :yum:

Wait, I’m mixing up jump numbers, but had a stop.

Some great rounds with this group. Avery Glynn was lovely as well, maybe started a touch slow. As a west coast person I am rooting for her too!

It was at the head of the three stride line towards the end of the course, I believe.

Olivia’s mom also used the help me with the ponies :joy:

All righty, I’m sure my horse rolled in something he’s allergic to last night, so off to give my second bath of the weekend. (It’s November. WTF.) Everyone we like is certain to have a good go since I’m not watching. See you all later!
