Middleweight Champion Cheryl Van Deusen and EBS Regal Majjaan (Ebony Masterpiece x Dazzle Me Amara).
In the 50-mile Championship, Van Deusen finished ninth overall and Reserve Middleweight Champion on 11-year-old Nazeefs Flashy Rose (Nazeef x RC Rose), another of her homebred horses. “I found out during the last hold on the 50-miler that my 100-mile horse for Saturday was not 100 percent after being mistakenly reshod instead of Regal, who did need shoes! I could not believe that I was the only middleweight signed up for the 100-miler and my horse was not sound to start! “My motto is ‘if you don’t start, you cannot finish’,” she stated. “So I vetted Regal in for the 100-miler just three hours after completion of LD. I then put pads on his front feet because the front left heal bulb had been bruised in the LD. The morning of the ride, it became obvious that it was a ‘dial it back’ ride with the ‘to finish is to win.‘” For Van Deusen, finishing was winning! Winning the Middleweight 100-mile Championship.
