Gotta love 'em - John and Reagan...

April Sycamore show a big success for Team JBE...

Our riders were all superstars this weekend!  Eryke and her mare were the big, big winners, with firsts in all four of their jumper classes. And, our new friend Courtney and her pal Ray walked out of the jumper ring with four ribbons as well!  

 Reagan got prizes in both the hunters AND the jumpers with Julie.  Oh, and he packed John around in the 1.05 - 1.15M Jumpers on Sunday, and won the class! 

Makenna and Elite even took their turns in the Jumper ring both days, and held their own in the ribbon count. Could be it was good for them...  Makenna won the CPHA Childrens/Adult Medal on Sunday.

Ashley and Colton made themselves known in the Equitation ring as well.  Ashley's take-home for the weekend included wins in the Golden Horse and OCHSA Horsemanship Medals on Saturday.

And, Claire and Race are continuing their quest for the most flat class qualifications for the OCHSA Championship show in the history of the organization.  (Think they are up to ten now!)  The pair are making the hunter under saddle and flat equitation classes their own, with lots of good ribbons on Sunday.  Just imagine what they'll accomplish when they get to start jumping!

Oh, and three of our amateur ladies did us proud in the last class of the show on Sunday, sweeping the second through fourth place ribbons in a very competitive 18 & Over Open Equitation on the Flat class.

Congratulation to all!  It was a fun weekend.

The first JBE Pancake Feast...

 John got his griddle on today, at the first of (we're sure!) many ring-side pancake breakfasts to come.  "R.D." was more than happy to supervise from the golf-cart.

Our condolences...

to Ashley Cole and her family on their loss.

An overview of Blenheim Spring Classic II...

in spite of a few stops and rails and missed distances, ALL of our horses and riders gave their best and improved throughout the week.  We are so proud of all of you!  We want to send a big shout out to Ashley for her fifth place ribbon in the Foxfield Class on Sunday and her second place in the OCHSA Horsemanship Class.  We look forward to seeing all of you at the next stop on this year's show schedule!

Early "returns" from Blenheim Spring Classic II

Meghan and Johnny are responsible for the first ribbons on this weeks JBE Wall of Fame at Blenheim.  The pair picked up sixth and eighth place ribbons on Thursday in VERY large 1.15M classes on the grass!  Starting today they return in the Childrens Jumpers, joined by Chris and Casper.  Makenna and Ashley will be taking their turns in the Equitation rings over the weekend as well!
