On Thursday evening (June 10, 2021) at the Germantown Charity Horse Show, Chris and Dan Richards sponsored the WIHS/NAL Children’s/Adult Amateur Jumper Classic 1.15m. The class honors Foxtrot Echo, an exceptional adult amateur jumper who was the horse of a lifetime for Chris Richards. Over her thirteen-year career the horse won numerous national championships.
Sixteen entries vied for the honor of winning this class, and it all came down to two entries in the jump-off. Ella Carrico on Quarter Back (owned by Katana Kennedy O’Brien) posted a clear round in 37.056 seconds. Leigh McDonald (o/r) on Katinka also posted a clear round – in 37.189 seconds. It was an exciting jump-off with only 0.133 seconds separating first from second places.
