lol, no, no first...she did get 4th overall. Pretty stiff competition, coupled with her only riding twice a week lately...so both her and the horse were a bit out of shape.
Just a tough time of the year for her, starting the 7th grade, etc...made it tough to keep practicing like she did all summer (4-5 days a week).
However, her trainer won Grand Champion in the open division and another young lady won Reserve Cham,pion (from the same stables) in the Open Division.
Also, one of her riding mates in the 13-17 Year old division won Grand Champion as well...all in all it was a good day with lots of Blue Ribbons and awards for folks and kids we knew.
