Early on at the shows, it turned out that
Hayden is somewhat of a ham. He thrives with an audience!!!! The more people watching him, the more he puts on a show. In 2004, just when IFSHA had started, we
attended our first show together and did fairly well. Neither of us (Hayden
and I) are very competitive, so you won't find us
exercising a lot. We just like to have fun!
At the 2006 IFSHA Regionals however, we did
GREAT! We accomplished:Geldings in Hand class : Top Ten 2006
- English Show Hack: Reserve Regional Champion
2006
Dressage
Hack: Regional Champion 2006 - and we won the Open to All Breeds
Dressage Suitability
We held up our own at the
Grand Nationals 2006 in Las Vegas. Hayden did fine after the long trip and
we made several Top 5 and even received a Reserve National Championship in
the Liberty Class for Geldings 3 years and over. Hayden could have been
considered the "Grandpa" of all the youngens that were there being the
oldest horse (12 at that time) in this class. Needless to say - I was very
proud of the man! He is such a ham. And both of us were glad to come home
again!
