This past weekend, one of Katie’s students and dear friend, Sabrina Morris, rode at the Waredaca Farm Fall Horse Trials.
Riding Katie’s Absolute Addiction, aka “Gus, ” Sabrina had solid rides in the Training Horse division until a slight mix-up of jumps got the pair a technical elimination on cross-country. However, Gus was behaved in dressage scoring a 36.4 and was very brave jumping in both stadium and cross-country.
Riding Irishreunion, Sabrina finished 13th in a very competitive Open Preliminary division with a dressage score of 34.6.
Way to go Sabrina!
