Optimum Eventing

Thankful to Liz and AYDC for holding their small show because we had fun doing things there today. Lee Ann & Signed in Ink showed Training Level Test 1 scoring a 67.308% and Training Level Test 2 scoring a 64.310% taking home 1st in both classes. They also competed Starter CT scoring a 35.625% to bring home another blue. They also were Dressage High Point Champions.

Brylee & Phantom of the Opera showed Training Level Test 2 scoring 61.897% taking 1st, and Training Level Test 3 scoring 60.60% bringing home 3rd. They also competed in an Amoeba jump round and Starter jump round bringing home 1st in both.

Looking forward to their show in two weeks on May 30th.

Foxberry Farm's show yesterday was a nice relaxing atmosphere. Mary Catherine & Athena competed Starter CT scoring a 39.11% and jumping double clear to earn them 3rd. Plus they did Training Level Test 1 scoring a 65.0% taking 3rd, and Training Level Test 3 scoring 63.8% taking 4th.

Brylee & Phantom of the Opera showed Training Level Test 1 scoring a 65.19% taking 2nd and Training Level Test 3 scoring a 66.8% taking 2nd again.

Jenna and her new baby Bailey came and hung out as a non-compete horse and handled the atmosphere like a champ.

Also proud of Michelle & My Dodgy Endeavor for coming and showing Intro A for their first show together in GA scoring a 57.19% and bringing home a pretty yellow ribbon (3rd).

Long fun day at the AYDC schooling show yesterday.
Carley had a last minute horse change because her boy didn't want to play so she took a 5 year old TB that she had only ridden twice before. I would say she did awesome considering she showed Intro A scoring a 56.563%, Intro B scoring a 58.438%, and Intro C scoring a 60.0250% bringing home 2nd, 1st, and 1st.

Jenna & Donnerdream had their First Level debut showing First Level Test 1 scoring 62.407% and First Level Test 2 scoring 61.970% bringing home two blue ribbons.

Mary Catherine & Athena had an energetic start to the show where the ride consisted of half halt and repeat but she persevered. They showed Training Level Test 1 scoring 58.077% taking 3rd, Training Level Test 2 scoring 61.897% taking 2nd, and Training Level Test 3 scoring 60.200% taking 5th.

Brylee & Phantom of the Opera showed Training Level Test 1 scoring 61.923% taking 2nd and Training Level Test 2 scoring 64.655% bringing home 1st.

Lee Ann & Signed in Ink competed Starter CT scoring a 32.813% and adding 4.8 time penalties (because I am making sure to build his confidence over fences and we have jumped only a handful of fences since last year, although yesterday he showed he is definitely confident) to finish in 3rd.

Congrats ladies and onward to the GDCTA Spring Fling.
