It’s time to play a fun version of Who Jumped It Best! I had the privilege of watching some seriously talented young horses this weekend at Fair Hill, all vying for the 4- and 5-year-old USEA East Coast Young Event Horse Championship title. After a day of dressage, the competitors were turned loose in the field to show off their jumping prowess, and there sure was a lot to see!
I shot some of the horses over a brush log heading to a drop into the water. This was a really challenging course, but I was impressed with how well the horses handled it. Some of them had never dropped into water or answered a lot of the different types of questions, but they hardly batted an eye.
So, you know the drill! Take a look at these photos and vote for your favorite overall presentation using the poll at the bottom of this post. Eternal EN karma to the winner! Poll closes on Wednesday, October 21 at noon. Good luck!
