The SBS Farms team enjoyed two weeks at the World Equestrian Center Winter Classics 7 and 8, taking home many blue ribbons and championships. The shows were held from February 6-17, in Wilmington, Ohio.
“I want to thank Randi Byrd, Olivia and Emma Walters for a great two weeks in Ohio,” said SBS Farms trainer Susie Schoellkopf. “Sarah Rodwin and Dexter (Stainless) were stars in the jumpers. Stephanie Brennan and Abundance were champion both weeks. Randi and Hey Sailor were consistent, and Katrina Hora and her mare Bella (Pretty Victory) got better and better for two weeks with really nice ribbons!”
Emma and Crisp continued their momentum from 2018, as they picked up more accolades together. The pair earned the 3’3” Large Junior Hunter Championship during WEC 7, the 3’3” Junior Hunter Championship during WEC 8 and won the Junior Hunter Classic that week!
Emma and Stardust also earned Junior Hunter tricolor honors, winning two classes during WEC 7.
Stephanie Brennan also added tricolor ribbons to the SBS banner with her Abundance. They earned the Non-Pro Hunter championship both weeks, with five blue ribbons and multiple others over fences and under saddle.
