Holy Crap!!!! I just finished watching the Charlotte Grand Prix Equestrian Classic on the ION channel. That was crazy!! Beezie Madden was there on a young horse, Creme Brule(?). They did wonderful for her riding the horse with a hackamore. But sadly, they did not do well enough to make it in the jump-off. Those who did were Mclain Ward and a Canadian rider. Kinda spacing right now, sorry. Anywhoo, Mclain was the last rider in the jump-off and he was also riding a young horse. If they hadn't of knocked down a pole, they would have won. All riders in the jump-off knocked a pole down, causing them to acquire four faults. But Rodrigo(sp?) Pessoa had the best time and won the competition, followed by Mclain and the canadian rider. I was hoping I would be watching the Rolex Three-Day Event, but I was more than happy to watch the Charlotte Jumper Classic. That is the shortened name of the Charlotte Grand Prix Equestrian Classic. The Charlotte Grand Prix Equestrian Classic is also the most expensive and biggest jumping competition. Of course, the Olympics are still the largest competition by far. After taking an hour to watch the competition, I have decided that I am certain that show jumping is what I want to do. I am determined to become a professional show jumper. I have also decided that it is my dream to meet Beezie Madden and Mclain Ward. Yeah, I have told some of my friends that it is my dream to meet Dale Earnhart Jr. and to have him drive me around the track in his car. But I have changed my mind. I could live without that happening. But I am determined to meet Beezie Madden and Mclain Ward. And it would be awesome if I got tips from them and had one day where I spent a whole day with them horseback riding. That would be the greatest day ever. Well, I am out for now. See ya!
