The Foxcroft Riding Program Hosts a Successful First In-House Horse Show

The Foxcroft Riding Program Hosts a Successful First In-House Horse Show

A beautiful fall day was the perfect backdrop for the Foxcroft Riding Program’s first horse show in its inaugural In-House Horse Show Series last Saturday, October 12, as 22 riders competed in five divisions ranging from walk-trot to 2’6” hunters and jumpers. 

Riders in the first division were invited to warm up at 9am, with the judged competition beginning at 9:30am. Local professional Karen Feeney was our judge for the day, and she awarded prizes from first through sixth place for each class. Champion and Reserve Champion honors were also announced after each division, and students were invited to our Winner’s Circle for photo opportunities in front of Schoolhouse. 

All of our competitors demonstrated thoughtful riding and did their best to stick to the plan outlined by their instructors in practices earlier that week. Attention to little details such as correct posting diagonals, simple lead changes, and a well-executed entry plan was the cherry on top of each course or flat class. Student helpers were critical to the success and smooth running of the show. From videoing and photographing each student to polishing boots, passing out ribbons, and helping as “jump crew,” it was an all-hands-on-deck kind of day. The Foxcroft Riding Instructors were proud of the teamwork, great sportsmanship, and excellent horsemanship that each Foxcroft girl exhibited. 

Full results for each division are listed below. Our next show of the series will take place on Saturday, November 2. More details to follow!
