By Chance Update

Another fun weekend competing in dressage this past Sunday at By Chance Farm (conveniently located in Union Bridge).  This time I rode Darby and Tammy in two tests each.  This show was awesome, as it was packed with PL bred horses! Joanna Kuehne brought PL Lucky Indy, Lindsay Hall brought PL Irish Indigo, Julie Kingsbury brought PL Irish Decor, and Rachel Rosenfeld brought Grand Luck!  All are"Lucky" babies bred at Playland farm to one of our Arabian mares! I think this show had the most participants of PL bred horses than any other I've been to! Thanks everyone for coming out and showing off!

Darby and Tammy did just that! Darby is still on the green side for his tests of Training 2 and Training 3, but he pulled them off like a pro! Coming home with a first and third place! Tammy competed in First 2 and First 3 to come home with two 2nd place ribbons!  Scores were low across the board, but Tammy still pulled off respectable scores of 65%.  The judge seemed to like Tammy making the comment, "Always fun to watch!"  This show was a move up in tests for both horses, who pulled it off quite well!

Here's Darby during one of his tests.

A big CONGRATS to student Joanna Kuehne who came home in the top three placings with her tests on PL Lucky Indy! Another big THANK YOU to everyone who came out on their 'PL' bred horses! All our Irish horses were true to their fantastic Irish character, behaving quietly and being a willing team participant! And all their mom's gave it their best!

Next weekend....back to eventing with Mr. Studly!
