Suzanne Smith (Paradise, Texas) and her 2015 gelding, Branson, had three strong phases to top a deep Preliminary Single Pony division, highlighted by a double-clear cones round. Smith has owned and driven Branson since he was a 2-year-old, and their championship finish at Spring Fling was an excellent result on the way to their planned next event, next month’s Live Oak International.

“I was really proud of him in the dressage,” said Smith. “He did everything I asked him to do. We had some really good rounds on the marathon, and he was absolutely perfect in the cones. I’m just really proud of him.”
