JC Armando brings home the blue under saddle!

JC Armando Culpeper 2012

Our homebred, recently gelded JC Armando showed in his first dressage show this weekend! Shown by junior rider Hannah Pierucci, we couldn’t be prouder of Hannah and Mando. The judges loved him as much as we do and he won his first class with a 67.5%. Better than the score, or his dashing blue ribbon, was the pride in how well this young boy behaved away from home and especially in the busy warm-up arena that served as the single schooling area for 3 dressage rings. Mando was cool as a cucumber all weekend, was a gentleman in the stable and behaved beautifully the entire show. Our baby boy is growing up! Offered for sale, we feel he is well prepared for a new owner to continue what we have started. Mando has a long successful show career in front of him no doubt!
