Sixteen riders involved at Dressage League II

SIXTEEEN riders, and 12 horses, were involved at the TT Equestrian Association (TTEA) Dressage League II competition, which was held at three stables – Jericho, Saddle Valley and San Antonio.

The riders competed in different classes from USEF Fourth Level Test 1 Senior to USDF Introductory Test A Junior.

In the USEF First Level Test I Junior category, Jessica Pagee, aboard Eye See Dee, won with a tally of 110 points, followed by Justynne Fletcher (with horse Quiet Bid) on 100 points, and Annabella Hill (with horse Morocco) on 90 points.

Dressage is a highly skilled form of riding performed in exhibition and competition, as well as an “art” sometimes pursued solely for the sake of mastery. As an equestrian sport defined by the International Equestrian Federation, dressage is described as “the highest expression of horse training” where “horse and rider are expected to perform from memory a series of predetermined movements.”

The TTEA have expressed their gratitude to the volunteers, coaches, parents and stable owners for their assistance, as well as Dressage Delegate, Inga Serrette-Fletcher, who made the event run smoothly and successfully.
