2023 show season (13 YO)

A Fresh New Season...

This season, with the main local IHJA affiliated show ground's new manager banning our trainer from their grounds (due to personal differences,) in turn extensively compromising Samuelle's opportunity to compete with the local competition, cutting local show attendance in more then half; so, we took the show on the road instead: Opening a new dimension to the journey, allowing for Sam & Idol to compete in a variety of A rated shows and adding a whole new level of competition and experience.

at The Jockey Club Thoroughbred Incentive Program Championships in Aiken, SC

Such a fun new experience with AMAZING competition. 

 The “optimum time” format for 2,9’ took a chunk out of this team’s talent making it more of a throw the dart experience for them (but still placed 5th overall.)  They placed 3rd overall in 3’ jumpers and boy, that competition was FUN TO WATCH!!!
