Competing in the CIC 2*, Courtney and Havasu Canyon had a
lovely dressage test, placing 5th out of 35.
Unfortunately they did do perform well enough in the jumping
phases to earn a qualifying score. They plan on
competing in another CIC 2* this fall as they work to
qualify for the Fair Hill International in October.
Competing at Training, Courtney rode Dunlavin Fox and Who's
a Star (Tag). Fox followed Havasu's lead in the
dressage placing 4th out of 20. They went on to jump
clean on cross country, and move up to 3rd but added a rail
in Stadium jumping to finish 7th. Courtney and Tag
placed 10th in the dressage, jumped clean on cross county,
and also added a rail in stadium, finishing 11th.
