NEWS
Riverview Pony Club members Kate Nestingen, Felicia Parades,
Lilly Hilgers, Gabi Paredes, and Elaine Sanders won gold medals for best Horse
Management team score at the Camino Real Regional Combined D Rally. Felicia Paredes acted as the team’s C Advisor
and Rebekah Bond (Portuguese Bend PC) was Stable Manager. The team also earned Reserve Champion for the
Rally out of 13 teams competing at the Meadows of Moorpark. Saturday morning began with close dressage scores; Gabi led
on Olivia, Lilly was right behind her with Sudden Impulse, and Elaine followed
on My Teddy Bear. Kate was riding
Painted Wagon in her first combined test and found dressage a bit of a
challenge; the pair couldn’t decide which lead to maintain on the circle
left. However, they came back with the
smoothest jumping round in the afternoon.
Lilly and Elaine also had smooth and faultless rounds over the
challenging stadium and cross country jumping course. Gabi did a great job showing Olivia how to
get the jumping done with only one refusal on course. Kate and Rebekah also earned medals for turning in perfect
written tests, two of only 16 out of 61 competitors to do so. Scores for horse care throughout the day
(Horse Management), dressage, jumping, and written tests were added together for
final results. Penalty points were
accumulated in each area; low score wins.
Everyone on the Riverview Team supported each other to finish with a
total of 129 penalty points, an outstanding score for 8 hours of judged
competition!
RVPC MEMBERS PLACE AT NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS!
