Penny Oaks Horse Trial - July 31-August 1, 2010

The team took Stephanie and Wilbur to the Penny Oaks as our sole competitor. It was a wonderful weekend.  Stephanie was in a huge
division (21 starters) of Beginner Novice.  She had her best dressage test to date and it was her first time riding BN test A.  The scoring was
very hard and she got a 41.5 which actually turned out to be really good because the 1st place person only had a 35.5.  She was in a tie for
8th after dressage.  We were thrilled.  Later that day came XC.  Hoosier Horse Park has a very large water complex so this was our only
worry as Willie can be funny about new water.  Well with a wonderful warm up Stephanie and Willie head out on course.  They were
going at such a good pass Duncan and I barely made it to the water complex (which was the half way mark) to see them get right in!  We
then got to see them jump the jump out of the water wonderfully and straight on to the ditch which Willie took huge!!!!  They made it
double clear to keep them on their dressage score and now tied for 7th.  Amazingly her and the person she was tied with both ran the
same time on XC.  Strange. Stephanie was very nervous going into stadium because many people had been pulling rails and having stops all
morning.  They went in and had a WONDERFUL round.  Again double clear!!!!!  She moved up to 6th.    Congrats to Stephanie and Wilbur
on their best USEA finish to date.
