Rolex, 2017

Congratulations to Madeline Backus and PS Arianna:</p>
People from all over came to cheer Madeline at Rolex - New York, Maine, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, Colorado and others I have forgotten, and were rewarded with a great performance by her and Arianna and a 20th place finish in their first 4* event ever!</p>
They also received an award for being the Equis Boutique Best Presented Horse Award winner at second jogs at Rolex (thank you Grace Simpson for your contribution as Ari’s Rolex groom) and Madeline has her name engraved on the J.D. Reeves Perpetual Trophy (kept at the Kentucky Horse Park) for being the highest-placing Young Rider (18-21 yrs).</p>
It was quite a memorable weekend.
