Ken, Megan, Brianna and Absolut set off to the Central Nova Horse and Pony showgrounds in Nova Scotia on Saturday for the first ever CNHP Dressage show. The judge was Joan Russel from Ontario. It was a full show and had many riders throughout the levels and even 13 FEI rides. Megan and Absolut showed the FEI Junior level and had super marks and won the overall high point FEI cooler for the show!
