Congratulations are to Carmen Franco who rode Vangens Star-Light to the win in the Grand Prix Special at the Wellington Classic Dressage Classic Tropics I Dressage show hosted at the Global Dressage show grounds. The win earned the pair the Vita Flex Victory Pass Award last weekend.
Now riding the Grand Prix Special is no easy task, but Carmen pulled off the lovely ride after a harrowing morning. Earlier that morning, Vangens Star-Light escaped his stall and ran off the show grounds, crossed the road to visit the Tackeria and then headed down nearby South Shore Road and was finally caught at the Fire Station. No one was hurt but Carmen was rightfully shaken, yet none of that showed in their winning performance.
