First Horse Show

Jesson competed in his first horse show a few weeks back. He rode Maggie who he has been practicing with in his lessons. They entered 3 classes and earned a 1st, 3rd, and 4th. I went along as groom, photographer, and horse holder. Below are a few pictures from the show as well as a short video of Jesson doing part of his course. Unfortunately, before he finished the camera ran out of space. Jesson said it was a very rookie photographer mistake! It's true, he never runs out of space while he's taping me competing!

Jesson and his trainer, Pat Deasy, discussing the course ahead of time.

Jesson and Maggie ready to go in the ring.

Taking a jump in nice style.

The results of lots of practice and hard work!
