Kelly and Tamale and Brenda and Willa made the trip up to the North Bay for the Marin Chapter Show. Both horses were well behaved and enjoyed the show location.

At PEC, Willa did her 2nd show at 2nd Level and her first tests at 2nd Level Test 3 and she walked away with two excellent scores of 68.81% (and a win) and a 65.952% in her two classes. Willa continues to be amazing and impress and she’s well on her way to qualifying for everything in a short season this year.

No photos of the show, so including an old photo of beautiful Willa.

Only Brenda and Willa went to PEC over the holiday weekend and they smashed it. After wrapping up the year with Trevor (most likely), Brenda is out with Willa trying to get qualified for All Breeds and USDF Regional Champs/CDS Champs at 2nd Level. Willa did her 2nd show at 2nd Level and her first te...

Lots of moving up levels happened for our first show of the year! Despite the unseasonable weather trying to play havoc, Kelly and Tamale debuted at 2nd and Trevor and Brenda had their I1 debut. Both pairs had successful days with good tests and good scores. Well done! Rachel and Jax continued on with PSG and had a few floor plan mistakes and change issues that kept them from the scores we were hoping for...but showed a lot of improvement in the trot work. We're all looking forward to the next show! Thank you Laurie and Yarra Yarra for another great one.

Show season has officially started for team BEST. It was a long stretch since the last one so we had some cobwebs to knock off and learning to do.

Congratulations to Beth on her purchase of the amazing Marky Mark from our favorite clinician Donner Huf Dressage / Heidi Gaian. He was sent to us to do a little jumping for cross training...and ended up staying!
