PRO Tour Series at Rebecca Farm Day One

Sunrise over XC at Rebecca Farm

The glorious Montana open skies welcome all competitors to the unparalleled venue of Rebecca Farm once again this year. Montana Equestrian Events and the Broussard family always put on an outstanding competition, and although the field is smaller this year due to the large numbers of riders based in the United Kingdom preparing for the Olympics in London, it is sure to be another exiting year at Rebecca Farm with new course changes by Ian Stark.

Yves Sauvignon and Ruth Bley's Sanssouci put in a very steady dressage test to score a 38.7 giving them the overnight lead in the Advanced Division, part of the 2012 PRO Tour Series. Yves was doubly rewarded by also winning $3,500 in the SSG "Go Low For The Dough" promotion. The contingency bonus award had increased substantially when there were no winners at the Bromont Three Day Event in June. The SSG bonus award was not won in the CIC** division, where it is restricted to amateurs, juniors and young riders, which increased the SSG contingency bonus award to $3,000 in the cross country phase for that division.

Kristie Nunnink leads the Adequan USEA Gold Cup Division on a 50.6 with her own R-Star. The hombred 11 year old Holsteiner mare has been a longtime partner for Nunnink and their partnership continues to get stronger and more refined each time they come out. Tamra Smith currently holds the lead in the CCI** with Top Secret owned by Krystie Bush and Jordan Linstedt holds the lead in the CIC** with her own Revitavet Capato.

PRO TOUR SERIES - FINAL DAY AT SOUTHERN PINES

Not withstanding the toll of the advanced cross country on Saturday, both Michael Pollard and Clark Montgomery managed to lead from start to finish winning the Advanced divisions at Southern Pines II Horse Trials.

Michael Pollard & Jude's Law

Clark Montgomery & Loughan Glen

With weather looming both riders had clear show jumping rounds in their respective divisions over a tight show jumping course built by Marc Donovon. Both Jude's Law and Loughan Glen looked full of class and well recovered after Saturday's beefy cross country test. Clark and Michael are both looking forward to their spring plans with Jude's Law slated to prep at The Fork and possibly Jersey Fresh and Loughan Glen aimed at The Fork and the Rolex Kentucky Three Day Event. Becky Holder and Can't Fire Me and Kristin Schmolze and Ballylaffin Bracken finished 2nd and third respectively after Michael in the Advanced-A division. Will Faudree and Pawlow placed second behind Clark in the Advanced-B division followed once again by Becky Holder this time with Courageous Comet.
