Well that's it!! Another Showing season over for us here at Heritage Morgans, To say that I have come home just a little bit happy is a slight understatement!! When we went to the Western Region Show, we were working on the fact that Enigma was going to be a Hunt Seat horse, well he definitely had other ideas, and has decided he wants to be a Saddle Seat horse!!!
I dusted of my Saddle Seat Suit, oiled the cut back saddle and kind of hoped for the best. I haven't ridden Saddle Seat for years, in fact, I was that much of a chicken, that he only had the Cut Back on 3 times before the Show, come on guys, have you ridden in one of those things!!! Its like sitting on a piece of glass!! Even Ben (Yes, I made him ride in it), politely told me he would stick to a 'normal' saddle!!!
Enigma is def a horse that doesn't like to hang around... 10 mins in the collecting ring and IN!!! I sat there and held on and off he went!! He LOVED it!!! He walked away with 1st in Limit Pleasure, 2nd in the Amatuer Pleasure and 6th in the Grand Saddle Championship.
On Sunday was the In Hand Classes. He was 1st in Geldings and Champion Gelding and then went on to win The Grand In Hand Championship!!
We came home a very, very happy team!!! Pictures to follow!!!
