Sun and Steeplechase at GMHA
Sunny skies and perfect temperatures greeted the nearly 80 riders who took on Endurance Day today at the SmartPak Equine/USEA Training Three Day at GMHA in South Woodstock, VT. For many of these riders, this event was their first experience with the Classic Format, and GMHA's beautiful and challenging courses served as an excellent test for inexperienced and veteran partnerships alike. Allison Springer and Gold Dust Moon currently lead Division B, while Stacy Taylor and Tower Hills Darby Dun (pictured above) lead Division A and Sarah Epstein and Insync lead the Junior Division. The competition will conclude tomorrow with the 3rd Inspection and Show Jumping.
