SPEED!!!!

Now you'd think with a title like that this post would be about motocross but noooooooo.  Equestrian Girl and Stanley tacked up for the Speed and Action games at the show last weekend along with their friend Morgan Girl and her Morgan gelding, Connor.

Flag Race

They got the flag - now GO Stanley, GO!

Rounding the outside barrel and flying like the wind!

Slow down - we don't want to miss the bucket!

It's in!  Now GO, GO!

Yeeehaw!!!

Morgan Girl and Connor flying in for a big finish!

Barrel Racing/Coverleaf

Rounding the last barrel...

Stanley is kicking up the dust and moving out FAST!

And another big finish!!

A true Western Pleasure Horse, Connor isn't so sure about going this fast but he turned it up as high as he could and flew like the wind!

While Equestrian Girl and Stanley did better than anyone would have expected, they DID rock in the Pleasure classes winning 1st place in 4 out of 6 classes for the 13 and under age group High Point Award.  Mom also didn't do too shabby with 1st place in 2 of my 3 classes and also winning the High Point Award!  For our hard work we both won director's chairs.  This one is mine in green.  EG's is blue and already set up in her room.
