2020 Accomplishments

Nov 16, 2020 Congratulations JB’s Rising Phoenix and Samantha Brandreth! Ash won 6 World Championships, 2 Reserve World Championships and was the Open Gaited Horse Division Grand Champion, bringing home that buckle!!! He was also the breed highpoint winner with his averaged scores. His top score of 85.545% was the third highest scoring ride of the show with over 2300 rides. Ash is currently leading for USEF Open Basic Level Horse of The Year, all breeds – one competition left. Quote from Tori Blankenship, Trainer and rider – “84.545% no need to say more. I’m speechless.”

Nov 11, 2020 The JB brothers have earned 11 World Championships and 5 Reserve World Championships for their 16 rides of the 2020 WDAA World Show. More to follow after we pick ourselves off of the ground.

Nov 9, 2020 from Tori Blankenship Trainer and Rider of JB’s Rising Phoenix aka Baby Ash Thank you Western Dressage Association of Florida for a fantastic weekend full of comradery, education, WDAA rated show and USEF licensed competition which were all packed in with so much fun!!!

Saturday offered a WDAA rated show, The Baby had an opportunity to try out Level 1 moves in front of USEF licensed judges. The 70% he received says that this early 5 year old Phoenix will move up to Level 1 in 2021. The Saturday evening pre- raffle & pre- costume freestyle classes Fashion Show, was so clever and enjoyed by us all. Fun, fashion, prizes and education – well done WDAFL!!! Sunday was the USEF Competitive day, this year WDAFL grouped the gaited horses in with all breeds. We are so thankful for this inclusion, all we do is move a little bit different in our “jog” the rest is all the same :))

The JB brothers did us proud once again to show that gaited horses can have bend and balance with athleticism. JB’s Rising Phoenix earned the Grand Champion Open Basic Level Title as well as breed High Score award. JB’s Absolut Southern Pride earned the Reserve Grand Champion Amateur Basic Level Title. So very thankful for our human and equine tribes, together we are a strong, healthy machine full of love and faith!
