We enjoyed another University of Findlay Dressage Schooling Show. The IDA team did a great job.
Going to your first Horse Show is intimidating. Having to ride a different horse than you had prepared and practiced with for months, would shake up even a seasoned rider. Ella took everything in stride, and worked with her new partner Linus to ride the required Dressage tests (patterns). They performed beautifully, earning a 1st and 2nd place. Making them the Reserve Champions in their division.
Ella connected with Linus and they worked together as a team which is the true art of Equestrian Sport! Congratulations Ella and Linus. Shout out to her parents for their incredible support, Ms. Barb for behind the scenes “keeping all a the pieces together”, Kim and Donny for helping take care of the morning chores at home and then coming and helping us at the show. 🤠🥳
