Twin Rivers

Twin Rivers was a very successful event for all three of my boys. The weekend started with the Young Event Horse competition where Condi placed third out of a very competitive division and if it was not for a bump on his hind leg where Rockefeller kindly kicked him he would have scored much better.  He then went on to win his open training division on a score of a 26. Tito usually puts in a brilliant dressage test but unfortunately suffered a bit from being the last horse in warm up and a ring next to the cross country. He redeemed himself by finishing the weekend on his dressage score. Rockefeller competed in the Open Intermediate division and put in a stellar dressage test. He is a few tests away from it being a winning test. He went around the cross country like it was a novice course and came in ten seconds under the time. Show jumping has proved to be a bit more difficult for him but as he is getting stronger so is his show jumping and this past week has been straight show jump boot camp.

I’m excited to get to Woodside and see how we are progressing. As always I am so grateful for my wonderful owners. The Garrett’s are nothing but supportive and I would not even be able to imagine sitting on a horse like Rockefeller without them. Thank you to my sponsors as well; SmartPak, RevitaVet, APF, ActiVet Laser and Voltaire Designs. My horses have all managed to place in the top three this past month, they are feeling and competing at their best and that wouldn’t be possible without the wonderful products that my sponsors provide.

Twin Rivers always does an amazing job and this past weekend was no exception. The footing was immaculate, the volunteers were wonderful and the Baxters are always gracious hosts, we are lucky to have such quality events in our area!

FTF as a whole had a great show and if you check the barns news and notes you can read all about it. Thanks for reading!
