Elena’s Equestrian Success

Year 10 HPAP student, Elena Penney has recently competed in a couple of equestrian events with her four horses, Muso, Parker, Candy and Casper.

On the weekend of May 14 and 15, Elena competed in a dressage and show jumping day. Muso and Elena placed 2^nd in the 95cm Combined Training and then Casper and Elena placed 3^rd in the 45cm Combined Training.

The event also had a Derby Day (which is like a cross country competition), with Candy and Casper completing the 45cm event.

Parker placed 3^rd in the 80cm event and gave his first 95 XC a go. Muso placed 5^th in a big class of 95cm and Elena also completed her first ever 105cm jump. She was very proud of Muso as moving up a level can be quite nerve wracking!

On the weekend of May 21, Elena traveled to Naracoorte where she competed with Muso and Parker. Muso finished up 8^th in the EVA95 and Parker finished in 11^th in the EVA80.

Well done to Elena and her horses on a great couple of weeks!
