EC Congress Photo of the Day – Keeping Her Cool
Meet Ryder Armstrong Jochim and her horse, Tall Dark N Sudden, aka “Springsteen,” chilling after their 16th place finish in the L1 13 & Under Trail class at the 2024 All American Quarter Horse Congress!
“Ryder’s primary show partner, Gracie, developed some acute health issues a couple weeks ago and was unable to come with us to Congress, so Springsteen has stepped up to the plate!”adds Lacey Armstrong. “Despite the unexpected and sudden change of plan (accompanied by lots of emotions), Ryder has kept her cool and keeps showing like a pro. So proud of this kid, and horse!” says Lacey Armstrong.
Thank you to Jesse Armstrong and Lacey Armstrong for this amazing photo and story. Congratulations, Ryder! If you have a great photo of the day, please email it to: Delores.Kuhlwein@EquineChronicle.com.
