East Aurora, NY and Wellington, FL – April 3, 2013 – The 2013 Winter Equestrian Festival has come to an end and the riders of Deeridge Farms had a home run during the final week. The season brought the farm various championships and multiple ribbons every week and WEF 12 was no exception. Katie Robinson and Rock Steady continued to display their talents, as they rose to the top of the class in the Amateur Owner 35 & Over Hunters.

Rock Steady, who has been on a break since week 7, entered the ring on the first day of the division as if he had never left. On day one of the Amateur Owner 35 & Over Hunters, the two claimed a second place ribbon in their over fences class, and after putting down a flawless performance, nabbed the blue ribbon in the handy round.

Robinson and her steady mount then came back, to earn a blue ribbon over fences, and finished off the division with a second place in the under saddle. These ribbons led her to the division’s championship tricolor for the final week of circuit.

“Rock Steady was really good. I went into the handy round a little nervous, because an accident just happened, but I just took it slow and made some wider turns,” explained Robinson. “We are planning on going to Old Salem and Devon, and then will probably do the Lake Placid shows.”

Robinson and Deeridge Farms will continue to compete in Wellington during the spring circuit, before the horses and riders return home to New York.
