A Successful and Fun Spring Season for the Foxcroft 骑 Program

After a winter away showing at WEF and focusing on IEA competitions, it was nice to switch gears and focus on taking a broad range of riders to a variety of horse show venues throughout the spring season.

We kicked off the spring adventures with a trip to Littlestown, PA, 四月天鹅湖全国演出. With four riders and five horses attending this show, it was a nice opportunity to get things rolling again after spending the winter season in Virginia working on solidifying new horse partnerships and strengthening core skills. This show had Foxcroft riders competing in classes from the .70米的1次方.15m where they garnered their fair share of ribbons and learned a lot. 完整的结果如下所示.

After a spirited Fox/Hound riding competition and a delightful Reunion Weekend, we turned our attention to the next two rated competitions on the Foxcroft calendar that would take place before the end of the school year. These two weeks at the beautiful Virginia Horse Center in Lexington are always two of our favorite show weeks of the year — the weather is usually lovely, 戒指很漂亮, 这个地区被宁静的景色所包围. 

There were 11 horses from Foxcroft at the 列克星敦春季首映 and the 列克星敦春季返场 shows. With some changes in the Foxcroft show roster from the first to the second week due to AP exam preparations, a group of ten riders competed over these two weeks. The riders, ranging from showing in the Long Stirrup division to the 1.25套头衫, demonstrated their skills in both the hunter and the jumper rings and collected multiple prizes for their efforts. 春季首映的一大亮点是 埃斯米维. ’27 骑高级艾琳B.’s horse, Pablo, to the Reserve Championship in the 1.0米小型/Am跳高组. This was all the more impressive since this duo only began contesting the 1.0m classes at the end of the WEF circuit and this was their first outing after their Florida adventures. 

在春季返场的那一周, the riders really soared to new heights as they rode exceptionally well and added five tri-colors to the Foxcroft banner. 麦迪逊B. ’24 还有她的新马"太空漫步"和 回潮米. ’27 on 50 Shades took home the Championship and Reserve Championship honors respectively, 在初级娱乐组. 在跳线圈中， 索非亚K. ’26 and Foxcroft’s Luck of the Draw were incredibly consistent in their rounds and earned the title of Champion in the .85 Jr/Am Jumper分部. Valeksa F. ’26 and Blue Star also did well in that same division taking the Reserve Championship honors. Capping the excitement during Spring Encore was Cierra C. ’25 and her mare, Generosa MK, making their second-ever showing in the 1.20/1.25 Jr/Am Jumper classes memorable by taking home the Championship ribbon and having Cierra named Leading 小君ior Jumper Rider at the show. What a fantastic way to begin this next chapter in her riding journey! The complete results from these two weeks in Lexington are below.

当你读到这里的时候, the Foxcroft 骑 Program adventures continue with students competing at the Upperville Jump for Fun, 厄普维尔小马展, and the Loudoun Benefit Show during these first few weeks of 小君e. We will be sure to share news from those competitions before we gear up to welcome several riders to campus to participate in the Foxcroft Summer 骑 Camp two-day Clinic and the week-long Residential 骑 Camp at the end of 小君e.
