Alberto Michan, Victorious in Yesterday’s Open Welcome presented by BDF Equestrian & The Younger-Millar Family!

The Angelstone Spring Series is off to a strong start with the Headwaters Cup starting this week. A lot of improvements with impact have been made to the site, more notably our brand newly built sponsors arches, a new horse path between the EEC and Astalos rings and more special classes! We would like to welcome everyone for this year’s Spring series!

This week, sponsor Martha Younger of BDF Equestrian presented our Open Welcome class held in the Main Stadium. Mrs.Younger & BDF Equestrian also awarded a leading rider award to the highest placed U25 rider in the class. an initiative placed in order to offer a leg up to our younger generation of riders to rise up to the challenge that is to compete among the professional riders. Mrs.Younger & BDF Equestrian also offered a bursary to the U25 junior and amateur riders competing in yesterday evening’s Open Welcome class. A very kind and generous donation supporting the future of our sport in Canada.

Newcomer to Angelstone, Israel’s Alberto Michan took top honors as well as third place aboard Gletscher EIS E and Costa Nostra respectively. On the second step of the podium stood Hyde Moffat, a very familiar face to Angelstone, aboard Coeur de Lion II. Daniel Michan piloted Karina R to fourth place. Safe to say the Michan brothers are starting things off strong on their first visit to Angelstone! Stay tuned for more of their impressive results!

Our professional hunter division championships have been awarded on Thursday as well, classes very generously sponsored by Knightwood Stables. Kristjan Good and Dennis Sweeney proved unbeatable, sharing Champion and Reserve Champion titles to every professional divisions. Well done, boys!
