3 Out of 4 Ain't Bad!



Well, Allie was definitely on form for the Region 18 Arabian Championships July 24/25!
We won the 3rd Level Championship with a 69.53%! and received a 63.4 in the Fourth Level Championship from judge Peta Christen.
Perhaps the best 3rd Level test we have done so far. Consistent 7 and 8 marks for most movements in the 3rd Level. Unfortunately we lost the 4th level Championship by 1 measly mark. Beth Noteman riding HSA Haley's Comet took the championship. Comet is the winningest Arabian in history winning over 18 National titles in Dressage! So, there's hope for Allie yet!
We did manage to get the 2nd highest score of the show, again only by .1 of a percent.
Allie showed her top form in the Half-Arabian Sport Horse Under Saddle, winning the Championship. We also took the Championship in the Half-Arabian Sport Horse Show Hack, this being her 4th consecutive title for Region 18.
I'll post pics later ;) E
