Winter cheer abounded this weekend at two events running to slide us into the off-season. We’ll be concluding Weekend Winners for the season this week, but we’ll see you again in a few short weeks when the 2026 season begins at Sporting Days the first weekend in January.
To close us out, Michael Nolan and For Ever Blue Z earned our Unofficial Low Score Award at Rocking Horse in Florida, winning their Training division on a score of 23.3. Congratulations!
