She also placed 11th in the $15,000 USHJA International Hunter Derby aboard Kenya.
Alex and Talkin’ Smak, owned by Hi Hollow Farm, earned multiple class wins on their way to claiming the division championship in the High Pre-Green. She also piloted Rio, owned by the Hays Investment Corp., to a class win and top ribbons at this first show!
After a three month break from showing, Bernadette Mulliken marched right back into the winner’s circle, winning top ribbons on both Lalair and Russian Hill.
