Academy of Working Equitation, USA, even traveled from Portugal to coach his students who were competing.

“It was the most challenging course I have

attempted with my show pony Padre. The

obstacles [created by Becky Mathews of River

Run] were state-of-the-art and beautiful,”

commented competitor Karin Hansen of Eugene

Oregon. “Everybody was cheering for everyone

It didn’t matter what team you were on or what

country you were from or what breed your horse

was. Everybody truly wanted nothing but

winners in the class. It was an incredibly

supportive environment for everyone. I’m looking forward to the next one already!”

The event started on Friday, September 1, with the Dressage Trial, continued with Ease of Handling on Saturday, and came to a close with the Speed Trial on Sunday.

In addition to the Individual competition, the event featured a Teams competition, where riders from different levels self-organized to form seven teams of four, each with a unique name chosen by the team. For each trial, the three best placings from each team were retained and used to compute the final team results.
