Show Results

October 20, 2006

The USDF REGION 3 CHAMPIONSHIP IN ATLANTA was a big show with over 250 horses and very good ones. It also was very cold and windy, with frost on the grass when the show started at 8am each day(BBRRRRR)

Brocken had 19 & 20 entrants in her classes. She pinned 8th in First level and 7th in Second Level. A wonderful result even though Ellinwood hoped for some higher ranking. We are very proud of Brocken & Debbie.

 

It was Gibraltar's year to shine and he did not disappoint us.

Gibby placed 4th in his Third Level Open out of 17 horses and

Gibby became Champion in his 3rd Level Freestyle. What a thrill!!

 

Now Hannover Hof had a Champion:
SAXONY in 2002, BROCKEN in 2005 & GIBRALTAR in 2006.
