Congratulations go out to Melissa Briggs and Amanda McGinty on great rides and placings in the ODS Stars, Stripes and Steeds Virtual Dressage Show. Results are in and Melissa and her "Regis" won the Intro A and B classes with Amanda and "Baelfire" a very close second. Amanda and "Baelfire" had an impressive ride in Intro Test C earning them the top score for that test. Awesome progress for both teams and so proud of each.
