MidWinter
Dressage Show
Los Angeles, February 2-4, 2007
Donna and Katy made their 2007 show start at Los
Angeles a success. Katy and Uniek, riding to one of Donna's freestyles, won
the first level class with a 70%. They also won their second level debut class
with a 67%. Donna and Jazz came fifth in the Grand Prix with a 65%. The next
day, with more energetic piaffe and passage, they scored 67.2% and placed
second in the Grand Prix Special. Hurrying to get home in time to watch the
Super Bowl, Donna tripped, fell, and fractured her elbow. Katy got everyone
safely back to San Diego where Donna had surgery the next day. She was back
to teaching the next day with a very bulky cast. Skyler Evans is keeping Jazzman
fit while Donna recovers -- hopefully quickly enough to ride in the US Freestyle
Championships at the end of March!
