MHSA and BEST took over Showplace Arena last weekend with three rings going full speed all three days.

Here is a great shot of London Metcalfe (Mechanicsville) and her Welsh cross Woodberry's Hot Pepper Pop in the MHSA Pleasure Pony division, taken for us by Jim Doyle of Frames by James Photography.

We have a soft spot for this pony because his dam is Nancy Reed's Maryland-bred Welsh Pony Land's End Hermia!
