April 5-7 - Morven Park Spring Horse Trials - Leesburg, Virginia

Courtney and Carlingford Sky need qualifying scores in all 3 phases of the CIC** (International) Division of this event in order to be eligible to compete in a Two-Star Three Day Event this Spring.

They began the weekend with a lovely dressage test, placing 4th. Then then jumped cleanly around the cross-country course, adding only a few seconds of time and maintaining their 4th place standing. Finally they put in a good stadium jumping round, to finish in 6th place and meet their qualifying goals.
