Congratulations to Tori and Dragon for completing the Heart of the Carolina's classic three day event in 7th place and winning "Best Conditioned horse"
From Tori:
"This horse gives me all he has and more, and today was no exception to that! We had an awesome clear show jumping round to finish the weekend in 7th (Fun fact- we had the same number and placing as Lor last year!). To top it all off, we won Best Conditioned! My horse is a rockstar! Thank you for Southern 8ths farm for putting on such an amazing event- Be prepared for a ton of pictures to follow..."
