Check out this sneaky save from Anni Grandia-Dodson! Anni jumped three fences aboard HSH Bold Decision sans right stirrup in the Open Intermediate at Aspen Farm last weekend before she was able stealthily slip her foot back into it. If you were watching her round as a spectator or watching a zoomed-out video not knowing to look at the stirrup, would you even notice that something had gone wrong? Likely not. And that is how you know all that no-stirrup work paid off bigtime. Oh yeah — and they went on to win their division!
