The first winner of our 2010 Games Giveaway was Michelle Bergeron of Right Lead Equestrian Center.  She was kind enough to take a picture of the saddle pad in action. Thanks Michelle – enjoy!

Her horse Emma is a 17 year old Cleveland Bay x.  She was just awarded the Cleveland Bay Horse Society of North America’s Lifetime Achievement Award this month.  She has competed (quite successfully) in jumpers, hunters, eventing and dressage.  She has also done a few hunter paces, and we even entered an extreme cowboy race last spring.  We went in our x-c tack!  She was 4th and didn’t bat an eye at any of the obstacles.  The higher placing horses were not clean but were faster.  We’ll catch ‘em next time!  I am waiting to hear what her final placing is for the 2008 CBHSNA performance awards.  Should hear today or tomorrow.  She also does many demonstrations and breed parades all over in which we usually go side saddle.
