“…Reserve champion in the class went to 13-year-old Karagan Lu Smith (Scott Lico, trainer), who fought her way up from ninth place in the first round with a score of 73.625 and sixth in the second round with 73.5. “She made a couple of mistakes in her first round, but it was well ridden,” Scott explained. “The second round was a little more complex and a lot of riders had some difficulty. Karagan went in and executed the plan we’d made when we walked course. She’s been with me a little over a year and we’ve been working really hard for the finals, practicing rounds at home just like what she encountered in this class. She’s a thinking rider. She doesn’t go out there and forget what she’s doing; she’s very focused and tries to execute the plan as best she can. She was very consistent over the two days and it worked out for her.” Read more
