Endicott Rider Wins Championship

BEVERLY, Mass. - Senior Open rider Anna Pavlov (Pound Ridge, N.Y.) is getting ready to ride for Endicott in a big way.  Competing in the Zone 1 Finals this week, Anna came in second in the equitation challenge, was champion in Adult Hunters and won the Zone 1 Adult Hunter Champion Class.  She also won the overall high score award with a score of 88.

Two weeks ago Anna won the Myopia Hunter Derby Class at a show held in Hamilton, Massachusetts.  She rode again a field of 30 competitors, jumping all natural obstacles, which are sometimes scary for horses used to show-type jumps.  The Hunter Derby consists of two parts and Anna earned the highest score in both rounds, with an 88 and a 94 in the Handy Hunter round.

Anna is looking forward to continuing her winning ways at the Massachusetts Horsemen's Council Day of Champions on September 28th and the New England Equitation Championships on October 18th.

Anna's partner in winning these blue ribbons is a horse named Adelenta, a 12 year old Belgian Warmblood.  By all accounts he is a very good boy indeed.
