One of the most fun parts of the UDJC show experience is they do a victory lap after every class, lol.

Mikey and Rosie are very helpful when I'm on deadline lol.

[griffinequestrian]

My most handsome buddy.

Shoot For The Moon Cash, a 4-year-old Connemara cross gelding showing in the .65-meter division at a UDJC Foundation Show in Pinellas Park, Fla., on May 31. Cash won both of his classes in this division, which included two jumping courses and an equitation-style flat class. IDK why YouTube ate the audio off this file!

Shoot For The Moon Cash, a 4-year-old Connemara cross gelding, winning his dressage test at a UDJC Foundation Show in Pinellas Park, Fla., on Sunday, May 31. Cash rode Benchmark Test E1, which is the equivalent of USDF Training Level. His overall score was 8.8 (out of 10).

Took Cash to his first jumping and dressage show and he was the star of the show! Cash did two .65-meter jumping classes, which also included an equitation-style flat class. And we did one dressage test, the equivalent of a training level test. If you haven't heard of UDJC yet, it's a fun, new educational horse show circuit gaining traction in Florida and Texas. It was the perfect first outing for this little dude. What a good boy!

UDJC ribbons are dolled out as gold, silver and bronze, hence the black and gold ribbons.

I think Mikey only puts up with our bridleless rides for the promise of a head massage afterward. He's so sweet. <3

[griffinequestrian]

Best boy Michael.

[griffinequestrian]

Making more progress with the bridleless stuff!

[griffinequestrian]

Just dumb gelding stuff. lol

[griffinequestrian]

Look ma, no hands!

[griffinequestrian]

The bravest 4-year-old I know! First time out on the trail, alone, and I felt so safe so film so casually, lol.

[griffinequestrian]

Always need snacks for the road.
