This morning in the Performance Arena, Alexandra Rippeon won the L2 Western Horsemanship 13 & Under with ItzOnly Make Believe, and when asked to tell about her horse, Linda, Alexandra immediately spoke of her love for Linda and her personality.
“She is awesome; I love her so much! She loves food and her favorite food is lettuce. She also loves margaritas!” Alexandra says. “She’s the best horse ever and is so funny.” As far as her ride went today, Alexandra said it was a very fun pattern. “I loved the teardrop of the circle; it was so fun. We just put a lead change on Linda this year, and I loved my lead change! I’m so proud of her and I love her so much.”
A change of tack and off to the Jim Norick Arena, and the team then grabbed the Golden Globe in the L3 13 & Under Hunt Seat Equitation!
An exciting evening followed for Caroline Korell, who made it through a cut, a semi-final, and then took the Golden Globe in the finals rail work with Buck Im Good for the L2 14-18 Western Horsemanship (the largest class at the show), then they turned around and won the L1 14-18 Western Horsemanship Champion of Champions right afterward to finish off the day.
Caroline explains “Zeppelin” loves Horsemanship, and she’s had him only since May 2021. “It’s his best class and I love it, too; I was really happy with the pattern and he was a really good boy!” She says she learned both patterns at once, since she had to show back-to-back classes, and then focused on one pattern at a time. “He’s so sweet, and goofy, and he’s happy to do anything – he’s the best horse.”
