Happy Mothers Day Sunday Links from Dubarry

Phillip and Mystery Whisper, thanks to Abby for the lovely photo.

Good Morning EN! Yesterday was a busy day at Jersey Fresh (if you haven’t already, scroll down and check out Abby’s wonderful reporting and pictures from cross country). Once again, Mystery Whisper reigns supreme with a rail in hand going into the CCI*** show jumping. The top six places in the division saw no changes after cross country, which is a testament to the quality of the riders in Allentown this weekend. Phillip leads ahead of Karen on Veronica, who has no rails between herself and Michael Pollard on Jude’s Law. Selena O’Hanlon, Buck Davidson, and Laine Ashker round out the top six.

In the CCI** Boyd and Crackerjack have the lead on their dressage score over Holly Payne on Santino. Her brother Doug sits in third on Crown Talisman. Doug and the next three horses all sit on scores of 53 with varying decimals, which makes this show jumping round likely to be a decisive one. Tomorrow the jog begins at 8:30 and the show jumping begins at 10:30 with the CIC**. There are various other forms of entertainment planned for the day, including a performance by the “DVCTA Patriotic Musical Quadrille” and a jousting demonstration. Check out the website for full details. [Scores] [Website]
