The AMHA regional horse show in Santa Barbara was lots of fun.  We saw friends, beautiful horses and had a chance to compete our Merriewold Morgans.

  
Jackie and WNC Rocket Man did very well in their First level test 4 class.  Especially considering that Rocket started to experience a sore foot.  They were disappointed that they could not complete the Second level class that they have been working so hard on.

    
Mark Luis and Merriewold Fabien competed in the Open Reining class and Fabien made us all proud!  He has only been with Mark for six months and he went through the paces like a pro.  He executed spins and flying changes and the beginings of a sliding stop.  In his debut show, he was second in a class of three.

I had a chance to see Caduceus Marika’s foal (x Hillock Showson)  Cafe Chocolate.  “Woody” is 15.2 hands, has Marika’s lovely eyes and is doing extremely well in the Hunter division.
