The Sat evening events at the show were wonderul. First was the final for the junior equitation riders who had to swap horses and jump a course. That was a good show of skill. Then we had jack russell terrier races which were fast and furious and so funny. Next was an exhibition by an Australian showman with 4 horses- awesome!
The big event was the President's cup, a huge show jumping course with many international riders and Olympic riders. Weheld our breath over each jump, and groaned when a rail went down. 9 made it to the jump-off and that was fast and a real show of horse handling skill and athletic performances by the horses. Best of all, my favorite, Reed Kessler, won. We couldn't stay for the awards because the Metro was going to close- next year I will drive in.
