As a three-year old, our Show Jumping representative, JB, made a smooth transition from harness race horse to riding horse in 2005. Helene Gregory and JB teamed up in 2008 and in their first year together, they were High Point Standardbred at the Meadow Hunter Jumper Series in Mount Holly, New Jersey. They were also the Grand Champion in the Equitation Division at the 2008 National Standardbred Show, and the 2009 Grand Champion in Equitation and In-harness Division. They repeated as the High Point Standardbred at the 2009 Meadow Hunter/Jumper Series.
JB has a natural gift for the sport of jumping, and as they strive to compete at open jumping in the three-foot range, Helene and JB are having fun while showcasing the Standardbred breed. Helene hopes to show fellow equestrians, that Standardbreds aren’t just for racing anymore!
Helene and JB's 2009 SPHO awards include:
National High Point Standardbred of the Year Award
Versatility
Equitation
Amoung other photos, the first driving horse pictured in this video is Helene and JB.
