Everyone had a successful first time showing at the Roanoke Valley Show! Although Angela celebrated her 13th birthday away from her family, it was well worth it. Angela and her pony Knock My Sox Off "Remy" won 4 of the 5 short stirrup hunter classes and were champion. Angela and Remy received a nice cooler and silver plate. Congrats Angela and happy birthday!
Gabi and October Sky "Dunkin" had a GREAT weekend at Roanoke. They won the WIHS medal the first day - receiving a very nice 50th anniversary ribbon and medal.
The Second day, Gabi and Dunkin went into the second round of the classic - leading with a score of an 82. Their second round score of an 81 was more than enough for her to win the pony hunter classic against 16 very lovely ponies. Congratulations Gabi!
While at the Roanoke Valley Show Amy Hofmann qualified for the USEF pony medal finals aboard Knock My Sox off. Amy and Remy also received very good ribbons in the large pony hunter division.
Gabi had a great weekend in Aiken, but she was also a super big help! She showed 4 different horses/ponies on Friday, and helped all the other girls get ready for the ring while Jenn was showing in the pre-green ring. She was reserve champion in the ponies on her pony October Sky and won the local pony medal BOTH days she showed in it. Great Job Gabi and thanks for all your help!

Alexandra Holloway also showed Dunkin in Walk-Trot and was Reserve Champion, winning the pleasure and 2nd in the undersaddle! Great job for your second show with us and your first show on Dunkin! Alexandra also showed Ivy in Walk-Trot on Sunday and won the undersaddle!

Woodland's Blessing aka Zelda, a large pony we have for sale that is ready to walk into the ring for the green larges in 2008, has been a super star! We have taken her to two shows and she has gotten top ribbons in the open hunters, local larges with Gabi (winning an over fences and second in the hack against TOP mover), and was reserve champion in the Short Stirrup Eq. (Olivia WON the eq. on the flat!!) and reserve champion in the SS hunters out of 14 with Olivia (pictured at right). This was their first horse show together! The pony was also second in the local large pony medal with Melanie Ricer on Saturday (her first time showing the pony as well).
Angela Pollex had a great weekend in Aiken with both her ponies. To end the great weekend, her pony Knock My Sox Off (pictured at left) was Champion in the Short Stirrup hunters. As a side note, with three days of showing in at least 100 degree heat, The Pollex girls had 3 ponies in Short Stirrup, and each one won the hack one day!!! Great Job girls!!

Amy Hofmann also showed up on Sunday to show 'Remy' in the ponies (as she will be showing him at pony finals) and she was reserve champion in the ponies. Thanks Amy!

Claudia's pony, Longacre Wedding Ring, AKA Gracie was the star of the weekend! Winning the SS undersaddle the first day as well as Reserve Champion TWO days in the SS eq., winning the o/f. She was also Reserve Champion in the 11 & under. To top it all off, Libby was visiting and showed Gracie in WTC two days, Libby's first time ever in WTC, and she was reserve champion the first day, taking home Champion the second day!!
Thanks to Angela and Claudia Pollex for joining us for the first and third week of the Aiken Spring Classic. Both their ponies (Knock My Soxs Off pictured below and Cherrybrook News Flash) received good ribbons in the short stirrup. Both girls also rode October Sky (pictured at right) the last day of the Finale weekend with ribbons in every class.
Ivy (owned by Caroline Tucker) was a SUPERSTAR at the PHJA midyear show. She won the Pleasure horse and pony class on Saturday as well as the Pleasure Challenge with Gabi on board on Sunday. She was also the winner of an open hunter over fences class on Saturday, and to top it all off was a great ride for Gabi to win the 15-17 eq. on the flat as well!! Great for Ivy's second show with us!
