The show grounds at Starr Vaughn Equestrian in Elk Grove were showing their autumn colors off in fine style last weekend. Rachel debuted Kristina Tomalesky’s Lemuria at 3rd level with a 64%. Also, Rachel and Marcus stepped out with their 4th level freestyle for the first time, earning over 65%. Everyone had a great time, and Marcus obviously loves having a theme song!
Congratulations to Rachel and Chakotay on their first outing together!
Rachel took Chakotay out for his 4th level debut, and their first outing as a team at the Gilroy Gaits show this past weekend. They had fun, learned a lot, and are looking forward to their next show. Great job guys!
Huge congratulations to Annette and Fleur Rubin (Ruby) for their 4th level debut at Gilroy Gaits, earning a 66% and first place! Great job!
Congratulations to Pam Nootbaar and Kip on their Intermediare 1 debut at Yarra Yarra, earning a 61.7%! A great achievement for this pair, and many thanks to Team Kip including, but not limited to, Heidi Gaian, Steve Wiberg, Bayhill Equine, and Tamara Yates. What happy faces these two have!
Big congratulations to Pam Nootbar for completing her Silver Freestyle bar with a 66% and to Mey Khalili for debuting at Second level with a 65% at the Greenville Equestrian Center this weekend. Way to go conquering the challenging weather!
Rachel and Delamango, owned by Pam Nootbaar, earned Reserve High Point Champion in the Lower Level Open division at the Woodside Finale for their performance at 1st level. Congratulations to horse, rider, and owner alike!
RW Dressage had a great time at the Woodside Finale show.
Rachel and Larraine Beal’s Marcus earned scores to 65% at 4/3, despite Marcus’s confusion as to why Rachel wouldn’t agree to gallop through the canter work, and Rachel piloted Pam Nootbar’s Delamango to a 69% at 1/1 and 66% at 1/2. Pam and Kip received a 65% on their Third level freestyle and Mey and Tiger earned a 66% at 1/3.
Congratulations all!
Another great show this last weekend at Woodside!
Pam earned her highest score on her 4th level Freestyle (66%) with a crowd of devoted Kennolyn followers watching. Not to be outdone, Annette and Mey earned qualifying scores and blue ribbons at 3rd and 1st level respectively. Pam’s Delamango survived his very first horse show with Rachel, also earning some good qualifying scores at First level. Larraine’s Marcus was super, and is starting to get a hang of 4/3, earning over 66% on Sunday.
Great job everyone!
