What an incredible end of summer for #TeamMLE!

Our #MLEeventers wrapped up the season in the best way possible—at the American Eventing Championships in Lexington, Kentucky! Congratulations to Erin Murphy of Morningside Eventing for securing 3rd place in Novice Horse with Rae Stone’s Haslemere Jacamo. And a big shoutout to #MLEintern Megan Hopkins for an impressive 8th place finish in Jr/YR Preliminary with Altaskin Jack.

Closer to home, our #MLEeventers made their mark at the Seneca Valley Pony Club Fall Horse Trials in Poolesville, MD. Huge congratulations to Courtney Waskiewicz of Defying Gravity Eventing for her victory in the Preliminary Rider division, where she also took home the TIP Preliminary Champion title with Krysta Paradis’s Where’s My Tail. Courtney also claimed 5th place in Preliminary Rider with Elizabeth Callahan’s Hand Rail and 3rd in Novice Horse with Lisa Smith’s Chancellor.

Kudos to Katie Wherley of Katie Wherley Equestrian and Grateful Heart for finishing 5th in Open Intermediate and being named TIP Intermediate Reserve Champion. Suzannah Cornue of Destination Farm also had a fantastic outing, placing 3rd and earning TIP Reserve Champion in Open Training with Cubic Sound. And let’s not forget Daniel Clasing of Clasing Eventing, who was on fire with a 3rd place finish and TIP Modified Champion title in Open Modified with Brandy Savarese’s Beryl, a 4th in Open Modified 1 with Barbados OS, 3rd in Open Beginner Novice with Glen Future, and 4th in Beginner Novice Horse with Baby Balou.

Wow! Our #MLEeventers truly brought home the TIP awards!

Meanwhile, our #MLEhunters were shining at the Quentin Fall Classic at Swan Lake Stables in Littlestown, PA. Congratulations to Mary Lisa Leffler of Rolling Acres Show Stables on her 2nd place in the $15,000 Quentin Fall Mini Prix with Zaza Z, her Championship in the 3’0″ Green Hunters with Mila Lieberman’s Koraline, her Championship in the 3’3″ Performance Working Hunter with Chime, and her Reserve Championship in the 3’0″ Green Hunter with Mila Lieberman’s Deal Me In.
