The Sweet Taste of Victory at Plantation Field Horse Trials

I took full advantage of all of the top riders being away in Bromont, and rocked around the Plantation Field Horse Trials on four 'all class' young, up and coming horses. After a tough week of dealing with the fire tragedy aftermath, it was great jumping around one of America's best horse trials.

I had great results on all horses, and more importantly felt that all my trusty steads are gaining education, experience and exposure with all of these eventing outings.

Crackerjack, owned by Colin Davidson & Lucy Boynton, 1st Open Preliminary
Steady Eddie, owned by George & Gretchen Wintersteen and Denise Lahey & Pierre Colin, 5th Open Preliminary
Drummond, owned by Cuyler & Katie Walker, 1st Open Novice
Brewster, owned by Cuyler & Katie Walker, 6th Open Novice

Tomorrow I look forward to getting out to the first ever Plantation Cross-Country Schooling day, from which the proceeds will be contributed to the True Prospect Fire Fund. Many thanks to Cuyler and Katie Walker, who own Plantation Field and helped organize the fundraiser.
