It was a picture perfect day for the grand finale of the 2010 Southern Gold Cup Series I held last Saturday at Rocking Horse Stables in Altoona, Florida. Riders started the 3-phase series in January at Canterbury Equestrian Showplace and then moved on to the second show of the series at the Florida Horse Park in March. Saturday’s show at Rocking Horse Stables completed the 3 show series.
The scores from the 3 shows were tallied for each competitor and the final standings for each series division were presented during the awards ceremonies. Many thanks to Winning Edge Tack Shop of Ocala, Florida who helped sponsor our series end awards.
Winners of the 2010 Southern Gold Cup Series I include: Pauline Wimberly -Tadpole (Entry), Chris Cox – Beginner Novice, Jill Lewis – Novice and Elle Strote – Training.
