I promise I'll post about the entire OCPH team soon but I wanted to take a moment to brag specifically on this guy. "Harry" really pulled it together for me this weekend at the CoWN-SH Kickoff Show and I couldn't possibly be more proud of him. He accomplished some amazing feats this weekend:

🏆 Champion Overall CoWN Open
🏆 Champion Overall APHA Open
🥇 1st in the open fence work with a 73 his second time down the fence in the show pen in a bridle
🥇 1st in the open pleasure
👉 First time roping off the fence in the show pen and we caught (I'm the problem most of the time)
🥉 3rd in the open reining
👌 4th in the open trail
🔥 4th AQHA Ranch Trail
🔥 3rd AQHA Ranch Riding

There were so many more accomplishments that were met this weekend that I can't even describe. I couldn't be more proud of my little stallion. As always.... thank you for the honor of the ride Harry!

It's always a fun evening getting to hang out and train with these ladies! I tried out a new saddle.... I think it's a perfect fit! What do you think?
