SCOTTSDALE RESULTS

Way to GO REBECCA!!!! you came and kicked ass! Sorry I couldn't be there. We left early Friday morning and stopped at 5pm for a couple hours. Got in this AM at 7. Glad to be home and getting some SLEEP.

Big congrats to all of you! What fun in the liberty!

Prize got robbed in liberty class apparently judges thought Del was using the whip to do sa rearing trick

the whole arena booed his scores and Prize shoulda got Reserve becca got 105 point del got 117

Well I wont comment on the judging/scoring...some things are just best left unsaid. However what I will say is it looked like Noble Lord, Prize, Rebecca, Del, and Austin were having a great time out there -- which is what this is all about! The feed is too pixely so you can't see facial expressions all that well, but I think it's safe to say there were more than a few smiles snuck in during the liberty .

Also, whoever groomed Prize & Noble Lord for the liberty did an outstanding job. I'm a nutcase when it comes to turn out, and even through the feed you could tell they both were perfect to a T.

Both Ammy Army stallions were groomed and prepared by the AMMY ARMY;)

tee hee i recognized Prize but not you Del .. silly Me

LOVE this picture! Perfect example of the "silver" Arabian stallion most every little girl wanted growing up.

Ok, here are some photos of Stacy and Jehan.

I love the pics of Stacy and Jehan!!! She's worked so hard with that horse. They looked fabulous.

Wow! Everyone sounded like they had a ball! Wish I could have gotten over to meet all of you and cheer you on. My sister and I made it Saturday, but she developed a migrane and we had to leave. Missed most of Sunday, but got to see the last few classes of the afternoon. Next year for sure!!! Maybe have my hunter horse there as well as my grandson in walk/trot classes. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Glad everyone had a great time, watched on live feed and was cheering you all on. It's great to see and hear of a group pulling together to help each other out. It's what makes showing fun and isn't that what it's supposed to be about??!!!

See ya all next year!

It is often said that you can't go to Scottsdale and succeed unless you are with a BNT. Well, I guess success is all realitive isn't it?

Rebecca, Stacy, Natalie and Jerome....it was an honor to deploy with you and I hope we get the opportunity again very, very soon.

Too all other members....WHO'S NEXT??!!

what purdy colours i'm so proud

I'll be seeing you all next at USN. I won't be bringing anyone but will be there to help other ammy friends. We'll probably stall with the AA.

Wow...it was really something not having internet access the whole time I was in Scottsdale!!

I am so humbled and honored to have stabled with some really amazing people. Here is an excerpt from my post on the *Noble Lord JP fan club!

We survived and are still basking in the golden glow of wonderful Scottsdale memories! McShane Arabians is proud to announce that *Noble Lord JP went Top 5 in the Liberty finals. We couldn't have done it without the unending support from the members of the Ammy Army, Dimitri Delgado/Prized Arabians, Stacy Mortazavi/Mortazavi Farms, Jerome & Monique Strack Van Schyndel/SVS Arabians, Natalie Angstadt/NN Elite Arabians, with additional appreciated help from Christine Rosseau, Austin Garrett, Phillip Chavez, the never ending energy and bustle of Del's mom!...and of course the cheers and waves from all the other Ammy Army supporters who came out to visit and yell from the stands! Thank You All!!

With that I am so engergized and READY to DO IT AGAIN!

VEGAS BABY....Joiners...Takers anyone??!!

Congrats to Rebecca & Del! You guys rocked!!! I won't make Vegas since the new horse won't be ready in time but 2010 Scottsdale I am SOOO there with all of you. Please bear with me when I am there through the nerves & fears, this is the first time I will show at something like that & have a horse with this potential. It's not eveen time & already I'm terrified. lol

Well, I never said it, but:

And having you involved was one of the highlights of the show. I am proud to call you friend and actually know you "in person".

Ok, *I* didn't get to meet all the young men. What's up with that! Rebecca was keeping them all to herself.
