We had a great show this weekend!  We are so proud of our amateurs and new youth rider!  John Herd showed for the first time ever this weekend, as did Emily McMahan in the jr youth.  They both did great!!!  Cherie had a little tough luck, but did really well also.  Here are our results:

Justin Austin & Smart Lil Espinoso–1st place in the Open with a 78!!!  Words cannot describe how proud we are of “Dino” and to have him in our barn.  He is truly an amazing horse!  I’ll be getting the video uploaded to the site in a few days.
