We have been following the development of young Quinn Himself all season. Quinn moved up to training this weekend around a quite challenging course with a clear round. Quinn was in second after the dressage and show jumping and dropped to 7th with 6 time penalties in the open training A division. Boyd finished horses in 4th and 5th in the division as well. Connor Husain and Piece of Hope won the division on a 25.0.
As the story goes, Bonnie Stedt, who lost the beautiful Cagney Herself in the True Prospect fire, had heard that Boyd had liked a young horse at Phyllis Dawson’s Windchase Farm. After the fire, Bonnie secretly contacted Phyllis and bought the horse for Boyd. Phyllis presented the horse to Boyd at Waredaca HT and said the now famous words “this is a present from Bonnie.”
Go eventing.
