Proven Preliminary Level Eventer!
2012, 16.1 H Thoroughbred Mare by Malibu Moonshine out of Alluring Elixir by Cure the Blues. Like her namesake, the Brazilian Formula 1 legend, Ayrton Senna is a bold, brave, determined mare. She just finished up her 5 year-old year with 5 Preliminary events with no XC jump penalties. She typically scores in the mid- to low-30s in dressage but did score a 26.5 (8th of 21) at Jersey in a division where scores ranged from a 23.5 to a 43 so she has winning scores in her.
Her show jumping isn’t perfect yet but, as with her dressage, I think as she gains more wisdom, strength, balance, and focus with age she will definitely be a force to be reckoned with. Senna did one 4YO YEH class and one 5YO YEH class and finished 2nd both times scoring a 73.5 and 77.8, respectively. Senna is a registered, but unraced Thoroughbred that has been at Dodon since she was 2. Located in Maryland.

Unbelievable WINNING Preliminary Event Horse with Intermediate Mileage!
Catapult – 2010, 16H, Bay Westphalian Gelding. This horse is your 2018 NAJYRC winner! This lovely gelding is confirmed at the Preliminary level, and has experience at Intermediate. He is a young riders dream horse and could easily go and win at the 1* level this summer, and then move up to the 2* level the following year. Catapult is rideable, fancy and correct on the flat, and often scores well with the judges–including a 19.1 at one of his last Preliminaries. He is equally as lovely over fences, and would excel at the 1- and 2-star level. Located in Virginia.
