Summer new her turn was coming up and she could feel the butterflies multiplying in her stomach. She patted Amigo again. "Alright boy, this is it .." she said, tightening her reins and squeezing him into a trot as she heard her name over the loud speaker. She entered the ring and did her curtousey canter circle then proceeded to do the course. Flawless was the only appropriate word she could think of. Amigo knew what his job was and he did it fantastic. As they did their closing circle, Summer could hear the thundering applause coming from the stands and the judges booth. Summer beamed with pride in Amigo. As they walked out of the ring, Summer fell onto Amigo's neck and hugged him tight, almost falling off though. She laughed as she regained her balance. Megan walked over with a cooler and put it over Amigo's steaming back end. "You guys were amazing!!" she screeched, as Summer walked off, cooling Amigo out.

Sam and Matt stood side by side watching her on course. at the end, they where the loudest to clap. "You where fantastic." Matt spoke to her. Allie walked into the ring and got her canter while in the circle. She went over the jumps ok. The horse wasn't corroperating. She ended the course with a circle, and no poles down. Lindsay helped put a cooler on the horse (I forgot the name of the horse Allie's riding... haha) and walked next to her. The man then annoucned that Sam is next, so Allie turned around and stood there to be her 'trainer'. Sam got the canter in the circle. "More Canter" Allie half said half whispered. Sam went into a beautiful flowing canter and the first few jumps where perfect. When Sam came around to Allie next, she said "Smile" Sams smile brought the performance way up. The last jump was perfect. The crowd and the judges went into a roar.. just as much as Summer. Sam smiled and walked out.. after her circle. Sam laughed and patted Time's a wasten'. Matt quickly put a cooler over him and she followed him to the warm up/down ring. Sam sat in the middle, putting the cooler in more on Time's a wasten' and walked him around.

Summer, Megan, and Vicki all clapped from the ingate for both Allie and Sam. They were great riders and they needed to know it. "YOU GUYS WERE AWESOME!!" Megan exclaimed as Sam came out of the ring. After walking back to the barn to untack, Summer and Vicki changed into A&F Jeans, tee shirts, and their Lionshare Farms Show Team jackets, with their names on them. They all walked back up to Chloe, Kelsey, and Ben.

Summer spotted everyone looking around in the stands, obviously looking for the Lionshare "crew". She waved her hand until one of them saw her and started making their way through the crowd.

Summer and Vicki gave each other high fives, then laughed. "Oh maaaaann .. I'm wiped out!! HURRY UP WITH THE RESULTS!!" Summer shouted, pretending to shout at the judges. She was just joking, but when George Morris turned and looked at her, she could feel her cheeks turning red as everyone laughed. "Oops .. sorry!!" she said, waving to George. He smiled and went back to discussing something with the other judges.

Chloe and Vicki followed. In 5 minutes flat, all 3 girls were back on Sailor, Hal, and Timmy. They stood and waited for Sam at the ingate.

Sam laughed and Lindsay quickly tacked up Chagall and Amigo for her, as she put her chocker and show coat on. She tucked her hair nicely into her Charles Owen Helment, and got on Amigo, while ponying Chagall. Allie sat on top of Dream, while ponying Peter Pan. They had Lindsay sit ontop of Tuna, since the rules say that another rider could ride the horse in the award ceremony.

The sight of little Lindsay on Tuna was enough to make Chloe laugh. "Nice horse!!" she said, laughing. Summer and Vicki laughed too. "And now, the winners of the 2006 Macalay Finals .. Summer Breen and Sam Richardson!!" she announcer shouted over the loud speaker. The crowd roared as Summer and Sam walked in the ring, side by side, their horses in perfect head frame. They both stood infront of the "award givers", wearing their medals with ribbons on Sailor and Amigo. They then stood facing each other, smiling for the picture.
