Abby Maude was all smiles as she and Toby The Coal Man bounced through the last water element with feet to spare. “He got a little bold,” Maude agreed with a laugh. Photo by Kieran Paulsen.

Briggs Surratt’s mount stood out in the field both for his coloring and his breeding. Bright Star is a British Sport Horse, so Anglophiles eat your hearts out. Photo by Kieran Paulsen.
