 2010 Horse Show in the Woods
The Side Saddle classes at this year’s Horse Show in the Woods were well attended and all nine riders (including three Juniors) looked so elegant and put together. The Juniors were judged separately.
The morning started early with the Appointments class outside the ring. Joannah Glass along with the show judge Mr. Brian Higham,
Stud Groom for the Duke of Beaufort, Badminton, England, judged the classes. Following the Appointments, the Ladies Sidesaddle under Saddle class rode,
sponsored by Linda Algar and Scott Farrell of Flutter-by Farms. Linda Algar on her Appaloosa, Sunny Boy, took first; Ann Lawhorne on Bally Welcome,
an Irish Draft (RID), was second; third was Betty Alexander on Tennessee; Taylor Myers on Arnie Bloom’s Clover Hill Silver Lining took fourth; Lisa
Doker on General Ike was fifth followed by Amber Asbell for sixth place. Photo Left: Ann Lawhorne (foreground) and Taylor Meyers (background).
The three juniors, Tatiana Hoover, Boyce and Justice Myers, came in next for their Under Saddle division. Junior classes were
sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. Thad Myers. Tatiana did a fabulous job holding together her naughty bucking horse, Neverland. Boyce Myers on Lady Bug was
Junior Side Saddle Champion, her younger sister Justice took Reserve on her pony Run for the Roses. They also placed one and two in the Appointments
class. Tatiana and Neverland placed third. Photos below: Guess Who? (left) and Tatiana Hoover (right).
