Live Show Report: Luck O'The Irish Live

Today's post brings us back to March 18th, 2018 in Acton, Ontario, Canada.
This was a very last minute show for me as I signed up around a week before the actual show. Thanks Alyssa for organizing!

I showed in every division this time: OF Breyer, OF Minis, Peter Stone, Customs, and Performance!

My table was pretty small, as like 90% of my show string are Minis! Yay Minis!!
I tried to be organized as I really hate rushing during the show... I ended up showing up 15 minutes before the show started and managed to get organized! The tables were so long and it was so nice to have so much room! All of my performance props were on the other 1/3 of the table that didn't make it into the shot (woops!)

I will start off with Performance as it was the first division that started with Open:
(Note: I ended up snoozing on the first 3 classes)

Erica's lovely liver chestnut jumping in Hunter/Jumper

Ann's Jumper was also competing in that class, both are lovely set ups!

Erica's Hazel mini made her debut during this show in the English Other class! 
(Erica borrowed my jump and added the flags on it since I wasn't using it)

Erica's Mini Hazel wearing Anna Helt's lovely tack! It's just incredible!


 English Other entries

Western Games

Western Working

Western Other


Call backs for Open Performance! So hard to choose which one!

Erica's little Hazel won champ of open performance! What a perfect debut!

Up next was Novice Performance, now this is the section that I was in because I was not confident enough to compete against the powerhouses of Ontarians' performance!

My little Breyer Mini was participating in all the english classes with my makeshift English set... and snagged a 1st place in both English Pleasure and English Other!

English Other Entries (now the jumping pony was put up in its proper place but I didn't seem to get a picture of it)

My new Working Girl AR made her debut this show too! She was both in Western Pleasure and Western Other. She snagged 1st places in those! This is my favourite picture of her from the show. She's wearing my Rachel Mitchell's Western Working Tack Set.


Wayne's bulls entry for Western Other


Competition in the Novice was fierce! My little poles entry ended up snagging the first place.


Costume class was another debut for my Paisley Resin, she is wearing my homemade Arabian Native Costume set and snagged a 1st, and my Peter Stone DAH Arabian got 4th and Lynn's lovely CM Weathergirl got 2nd!

Next was Other Performance, I decided to put my Working Girl resin back in with a ranching entry. I think this shot was pretty artsy! 

Amanda's little cart entry which is so nice and amazing!

Novice Performance callbacks! All of my mini scale ladies have managed to participate in the callbacks... and...

My Working Girl resin got Champion ribbon! My first in performance and my 2nd rosette (Champ reserve for Novice Customs) in my model horse showing career!

Up Next were Artist Resins!

My little Paisley did well by taking 1st place against Lynn's amazing 2018 NaMoPaiMo and the micro mini is Erica's 2018 NaMoPaiMo!

Erica's Hazel made another appearance!

Ann's Jumper also made an appearance

And Erica's big jumper!

A Chewie Resin (owned by Kaylee?)

My 2018 NaMoPaiMo unfortunately missed his breed class but reappeared in the Pinto Workmanship class and got 6th place!

Artist Resin Breeds Callback! My two girls: Paisley and Working Girl managed to participate. I believe Erica's Hazel (painted by Wild Horse Studios) won Reserve Champion and Champion went to Lynn's beautiful liver chestnut Arabian!

Up Next were Customs:
I bought this guy from Lynn (Snowdrift Studio on Facebook) before the show and he is just a gorgeous minimal dappled Palomino Andalusian! But I ended up walking away with not just one of her customs... but TWO!

This gorgeous guy is a slightly resculpted (filled in and raised tail) Breyer Django mold also by Snowdrift Studio aka Lynn... A breathtaking Perlino! 

Both boys did well, the Palomino got 2nd in a tough Spanish class and 4th in Workmanship. The Perlino got 1st in Breed and 3rd in Workmanship!

My very first custom by a professional was by Lynn as well and he has done exceptionally well! His results are in the end ;)


Custom Breeds Callback

Lynn's 2018 NaMoPaiMo and Champion of the Artist Resin division!

Artist Resin Workmanship callbacks! Working Girl got nosed out of a NAN card in Chestnut Workmanship but Paisley managed to get first in Greys and Breed.

Peter Stone Callbacks
My Peter Stones did well too... My Chestnut (left) and Liver Chestnut (right) both got 1st and 2nd places in their classes.

To wrap things up:

My Working Girl Resin ("Pretty Lil Penny") got 1st places & 2nd in her Performance and 1st place in Breed Quarter Horses Artist Resin division and 3rd in Artist Resin Chestnut Workmanship! 

My Lynn's draft custom got 1st in Breed and 2nd in Workmanship Chestnut


Here are my lovely Customs and Artist Resins! 


Until the next show report,
Marina
