Ingate

It was an emotional day at Spruce Meadows during a tribute to Hickstead, one of the greatest show jumping horses of all time, who passed away in November 2011. Canadian Eric Lamaze, riding partner of the famed stallion, was on hand to dedicate the statue made by Mary Sand. The bronze will stay permanently at Spruce Meadows, as per Eric’s wishes.

Congratulations to Pam Baker, of  Bealston, Virginia, and Arthur Hawkins, of  Rancho Santa Fe, California, for being recognized by The USHJA as 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award recipients. Created in 2008, the Lifetime Achievement Award honors those with a lifelong involvement in the sport who have dedicated their lives to advancing the hunter and jumper disciplines on a national platform.

Winning a Big Eq class is a Big deal! As this issue went to press, several ASPCA Maclay Regional titles had been determined. Hunter Holloway took the Region 5 title, Jeffrey Tolson won the Region 6 Championship, Sara Nordstrom took home the Region 7 top honors and Alexis Graves won the Region 8 title. Sidelines Magazine is a Big fan of the Maclay and will be a sponsor of the class during the 2013 Winter Equestrian Festival.

Florida Trac, in Loxahatchee, Florida, is a rescue organization dedicated to caring for Florida Thoroughbred horses who are no longer able to race. Many of these horses have sustained injuries or acquired medical or even surgical problems that are crippling or life threatening and expensive to treat. Florida Trac is seeking financial contributions to help pay medical bills. Donations can be made for Florida Trac Veterinary Care by calling Reid & Associates at (561) 790-2226. Ask for Jan Zenobia or Helen Freshour.

Region IV of the American Connemara Pony Society recently held its annual show during the Highfields “Just for Fun” show in Aiken,South Carolina.

The Connemara pony is Ireland’s only native breed and they usually range in size from 13 to 15 hands or more. They are known for their gentle dispositions, intelligence, hardiness and jumping ability. For more information on Connemaras (including a classified ads section) go to www.acps.org.

Saving the animals! Barbara Nelson, Joint Master of the Fox Hounds for Whiskey Road Fox Hounds in Aiken, South Carolina, has been on an animal shelter mission and what a huge mission it has been.

Annette Longenecker wasn’t just born into horses Annette Longenecker wasn’t just born into horses—in a way, she was born into her career. She grew up in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, where her parents ran a farm. Her mother taught, and her father had a jump business and then created one of the first horse show software programs: Ryegate Show Services, Inc.

Riding all her life, Annette spent many years as a groom and loved it, but knew it wasn’t what she wanted to do as a career. After she finished college, Annette’s father recruited her to help process entries at Ryegate. Since her father, Lloyd Longenecker, founded it in 1981, Ryegate has provided show management and office staff for some of the largest shows in the country. Now, Annette has taken over from her father and directed the company as it focuses on managing memberships and rankings for organizations such as the North American League, WIHS Championships and Equitation, Rolex/USEF Computer Ranking and National Medal Series (THIS NCM and Ariat NAM). Ryegate also provides scoring software for use with video walls, and production teams for hunter and jumper shows.

“Besides running Ryegate Show Services and its various organizations, I can be found in the show office, running a scoreboard or judging jumpers at most shows,” Annette said. “I love getting to wear a few different hats at the show.”

When she’s not busy at a show, Annette lives in Annville, Pennsylvania, with her “fur-baby,” Maggie Mae, and enjoys spending time with her many godchildren. Though she doesn’t currently own any horses, Annette rides when she can at Rolling Acres Farm with Patty Foster, Ashley Foster-Worthington and Mary Lisa Leffler.

A column from Liz Halliday-Sharp herself The spor A column from Liz Halliday-Sharp herself 
The sport of eventing is a demanding and mentally challenging discipline that requires a combination of physical and mental fortitude from both the rider and horse. While having a coach can be incredibly beneficial, self-coaching can also play a crucial role in a rider’s success.

I think that given the opportunity, most riders would like to be coached every day. The reality of life in the horse world, however, is that the majority of us need to absorb as much from the lessons we have on a limited basis and then practice those skills at home to improve.

When I am riding, I try to have a plan for the horses each day and focus on what I’m looking to achieve. It’s important to be aware of the steady improvements rather than trying to solve everything all at once. This is especially important when teaching horses new movements or exercises that they might struggle with, and we need to give them time to learn and understand what we are asking for.

I have a couple of quotes that I use regularly when I’m teaching, and these are mottos that I hold myself to in my daily work as well.

The first is, “If you do what you have always done, you will get what you have always gotten.” This is a quote that was said to me many years ago when I was still motor racing and I keep it in the back of my mind each day. It’s easy to get stuck doing the same thing every day with your horse and bad habits are hard to break, from both riders and horses!

This leads me to my next quote, which is, “If what you are doing isn’t working, try something else.” It really is as simple as that! Many riders I see keep asking a horse to do something the same way over and over with an ongoing negative response and they wonder why things don’t get better. In these circumstances, I recommend that the rider change something, even if it’s wrong.
