CN North American Young Rider Championships presented By Adequan

Young Rider Quality On the Highest Level Yet

What needs to be noted is the impressive level of competition between these girls this year. Last year, only the winner, Christina Beal, was able to score above 200 points. This year, five competitors scored above 200, averaging 68.7%’s and up! That is a very impressive leap up in the competition level. Next year’s competition should be one to watch for sure! With the finals in, and the ribbons and medals awarded accordingly, we can all breathe easier and start preparing again for next year. Well done and congratulations to all!

The event is over, but coverage continues, with profiles from interviews with DressageDaily's Stacy Gormley.
