Great fun first weekend at Coconino!
All horses had clear XC rounds. 5 out of 7 had clear SJ.
Rommina WON starter leading from beginning to end with her homebred Incauto in his second ever event!
Brett finished on his dressage for 4th out of 10 in training rider. Video shows him through the coffin.
Leah only added one rail to a solid dressage for 5th out of 13 in BGN.
Reatta and my Mom were tied for first with a 29.7 going into XC but was not closest to Optimum time and so finished 2nd. Mickey and I finished on our 30.0 to be 3rd in same division out of 14 in Open novice.
Lenny and my Mom did not have their best show with a couple rails in SJ but rocked around XC with just a handful of time to get another training qualifier and 5th in Open training.
Red finished way down in starter since I trotted jumps in both phases to work on relaxation/balance & so had time faults but he jumped around clean and learned a lot!

Our Eventing season has come to a close!
Following order of pictures:
Nat R just added one rail and some time to her dressage in the training for sixth. Took it slow on XC to work on softness & position. She has made huge progress with Pen this season.
Mom and Lenny had a rough SJ where they lost the rhythm for some rails. As usual he stormed around the XC! He has really become a confident training level horse this season.
Mom & Reatta won the beginner novice, finishing on their dressage.
My mom is in her sixties and is training all these young horses and I think it won’t be too long we see her at prelim again.
Laura had a great first BGN for both her & her mare. One run out early on XC but strong finish.
Maggie & HB finished on her dressage for 5/12 in her first ever BGN.
Brett was 2nd in sane division on new horse Finn.
Carleigh schooled beautifully on Friday and after a green bobble in the beginning in SJ had a great round in her mares first BGN. Dorian had a 4 yr old moment in warm up on Sunday and popped Carleigh out of the tack and they weren’t ready to go out afterward so we withdrew. Carleigh has done an amazing job getting this horse more relaxed over fences this season—it’s not easy training a sensitive TB mare as a young rider still learning yourself.
Not pictured—
Sophia just added one rail and 2 seconds of XC time to her dressage in the novice on Empire.
Mickey won the novice.
Meag & Elliot did the starter combined test with double clear SJ and had great XC schools on Friday!
Well we do need to get to the base better, but what a scopey horse!
Brett finished on his dressage for second place in the Beginner Novice after only a handful of rides with his new horse. We were not planning on taking this one to the show as we originally thought it would be too quick of a turn around from arriving, but Finn has handled everything like a champ and fit right in so we decided to take advantage of the last show of our season to get to know him more at a nice & easy level.
Can’t wait to see how they progress!
