“Having a plan before executing the pattern was important. I would go through each section of the pattern making sure I had a great plan for both Lefty and I.”

“Equitation Over Fences is one of my favorite classes because it’s all about the decisions you make, and it’s a class that awards the poised and effective riders. Riders should remember that they need to ride a route that’s best suited for their horse.”

Evidence of the takeover was discovered yesterday during the Trail preliminaries here in Oklahoma City. Tim “The Trail Man” Kimura’s course was overrun with a number of Pokemon creatures, including a bright, yellow Picachu that made a few appearances at the top half of the course by the trot poles and at the entrance to the box.

Due to the huge expense of importing Taylah’s horse to the United States to compete, Jesse was trying to locate a Quarter Horse in the USA under an International Lease so Taylah would be able to attend her first and final AQHYA Show in Oklahoma City. Amanda Specht immediately thought of Dolly and approached Brenda and John Ackerman about the possibility of lending her to Taylah.

Both Emma Edwards with This Is Why I’m Here and Kaylee Mellott with Only In Showbiz each scored a 227.5 and were the highest scoring teams during the Western Riding preliminaries.
