Orange Coast Cooler Show at Sycamore...

Lots of ESI riders took part in the Cooler show over the weekend at Sycamore, working on those last minute qualifications for the Year-End Championship show!

Starting with the pony riders - Aislyn and Majesty were in the ribbons in all their Walk/Trot classes, and she brought home the blue in both Equitation Over Rails and Under Saddle.
Shea on Lady and MaKenna on Ginger were cleaning up in the Short Stirrup and Pony Hunter Divisions, and MaKenna even piloted Ginger around to a third place ribbon in Pony Jumpers! Lady was Reserve Champion in Short Stirrup and Champion in Pony Hunters!

Gwen showed Zia in the Low AA and AA Hunters, collecting ribbons in both divisions, as well as showing in her first OCHSA Horsemanship Medal.

Audra on Fire, as well as Maddy on Remington and Concerto were continually in the ribbons in the Childrens/AA Hunters. And Maddy came back on her two in the Modified Jr/Amateur division, sharing ribbons with Melissa on Fiona and Jaime on Grace.

Melissa and Fiona were also in the ribbons in the Modifed Hunters, and Fiona, Concerto and Denmark swept the Working Hunter Division!

In equitation - Jaime and Audra brought home prizes in the open flat equitation classes, as did Ally her age group Open Equitation Over Fences. Audra won Saturday's OCHSA Equitation Class, and she, Ally, Melissa and Jaime were all in the ribbons in that class on Sunday. It was Jaime who brought home the top prize in the CPHA Childrens/Adult Medal, and Melissa won the Golden Horse.

On to the jumpers - Ansley and Casper were in the ribbons in Level 1, Level 2-3 (a blue) and Modified Jr/Amateur Jumpers. Ally rode Ladino to a ribbon in Level 2-3 and a first in Childrens Jumpers. She was also in the ribbons on Razz in Level 1, Level 2-3, Children's and the Modified Jr/Amateur class. New comer Shea Wigert placed on Wolfy in the Love 2-3, 3-4, and Childrens Jumpers. And, Maddy successfully showed Remington in Level 1, Leopold in Level 0, Level 1 and the Low Childrens, and then came back on Romeo with good ribbons in Level 3-4, Level 4-5, and a second place in the Mini Prix.

Congratulations to all our riders! (And apologies to anyone the Reporter may have missed...)
