CCF Porshah



Here is a pic that I took of Porshah at the last show and got a little artistic with the digital imaging editing programmes.

Porshah the Wonder Horse!



After only 7 weeks under saddle, CCF Porshah was entered in the AHAEC Youth/Amateur show at Blacks' Equine Center on Mothers' Day.
From the very beginning, Porshah took to the new surroundings in stride, acting like a veteran!
Suzanne could not be happier with the results; even beating seasoned horses, 4 times her age!
Here are Porshahs' placings:
1st H/A Sport Horse Mares in Hand (75%)Defeated last years Reg 18 Champion.
1st H/A Hunter Pleasure Limit Horse
2nd H/A Hunter Pleasure Ladies to Ride
3rd H/A Hunter Pleasure AAOTR
4th H/A Hunter Pleasure Championship- probably would have won the class, but she did a flying change right in front of the judge!
5th H/A Sport Horse Under Saddle- A little on the "muscle" according to the judge!
So, it's some time to let Po hang out in the green pastures, and work on her dressage stuff again.
Not bad for a 3 year old!

GEN CUSTER aka MAVI at Milestone



So, I was looking through the AHA Handbook and figured something else out; With just one show under our belts, Mavi has also qualified for Canadian and US National Sport Horse Championships. It won't be this year, as the US Nationals are in Nampa Idaho, but maybe next year.

Here's a Good Photo of Chellis



Thanks Rosemarie for sending this pic of Chellis at the LDA Trillium Show last weekend. You can look out for Chellis at the Niagara and Glanbrook Trillium Shows this season at Training Level.

Team Kirkridge "Dun Good"





Milestone Arabian Dressage Competition was held May 6th. Although Kirkridge only competed with 2 horses, they held their own!
Lauren Bailey and ESP Two Moon Junction dominated 1st and 2nd Level, plus the Half-Arabian Sport Horse Classes. Elaine and Mavi competed at 4th and Prix St.George. Yeah Mavi! Maybe Elaine should ride him more- 12 rides before the show! Oh well, Mav still got a 62.62% at 4th Level and 58.75% at Prix St. George! Elaine now has Maverick qualified for the Region 18 Championships..........how about Intermediate 1 in July? Could prove interesting!
Thanks to everyone who came to Milestone to cheer and help! Jacquie, Dana, Judy, Sue and Les. It was wonderful to have a group of people with us! Thanks to Judy for the wonderful pics!
