12 - Fair Hill Horse Trials - Elkton, Maryland |
| It was a banner day for Amy Lindgren's two
new horses Snowy and Lindy. With Courtney riding, the two
horses placed 1st and 2nd in the dressage (scores of 27.5 and 28.5
respectively). They then both jumped double clean on cross country
and in stadium jumping to to finish 1 and 2 in the same Novice Horse
division. The results were especially pleasing since it was Snowy's
1st event since arriving in the US, and it was only Lindy's 2nd horse
trials.

18-20 - Champagne Run at the Park Horse Trials - Lexington, Kentucky |
Courtney and Toy Story started the weekend
off in fine style as "Woody" completed his first Intermediate
Level horse trials. The two put in a good dressage test and then
jumped well around the large stadium and cross county courses to earn a qualifying
event towards a CIC or CCI**.
Not to be outdone, the horses competing at the lower levels brought
home ribbons aplenty. At the Training Level, Christine Weir,
riding Code of Ethics added double clean jumping rounds in stadium and
on cross country to good dressage test, finishing in 3rd place in a
division of 29. At the Novice Level, Snowy and Lindy continued
their winning ways, with Courtney riding each of them into 1st place,
bringing home more blue ribbons. Unlike last weekend, they were in
separate divisions.
