The
Reserve Champion FEI High Points for each show went to Sue Halasz
riding two different horses. Inca, a Dutch gelding, owned by Barbara
McElnea was the reserve champion for show one. The pair won the
I-1 Freestyle with a brand new routine designed by McElnea just
two weeks prior to the show. Halaszs other FEI Reserve High
Point was won on Lector, a Dutch gelding owned by Janice Jaspers.
He is a very excitable horse with a very, very good work
ethic, Halasz said of the son of Pion. Plans for the ten-year-old
gray include qualification for next years USET Festival
of Champions in Gladstone, New Jersey.
Halasz
was also High Point Upper Level Champion at the first show with
Crooked Willow Farms Romeo, a horse that is currently for
sale. Halasz said, If he doesnt sell well be
happy to keep him. He will be a super FEI horse. He really has
a talent for piaffe and passage and he loves to work! The
duo scored a 72% in third level test three.

Two
other Crooked Willow owned horses also were big winners for Halasz.
Chaleon, a five-year-old stallion by Calido I was victorious in
two of his three first level classes. Our plan for him is

Orleandro by Oglio was also a winner at first level.
Halaszs
assistant trainer Kristen Aggers also had her share of tri-color

The pair claimed the Upper Level High Point Championship at show

a really special horse, Aggers said.
