Scott Stewart and David Gochman’s horse, Catch Me, took home championship honors in the Equine Tack and Nutritionals First Year Green Hunters. This week was just the third time that Stewart has shown Catch Me. After only placing third in the under saddle the first day of competition, Catch Me came back on Thursday on his game and won both over fences classes. The highlight of Catch Me’s performance was his score of 95 in the first over fences round today. “Yesterday he was a little bit fresh, so he acted a little goofy,” Stewart started, “Today he came out and was ready to compete.” Symbolic, an entry of Glefke and Kensel LLC, was piloted to reserve championship honors by Kelley Farmer. The pair topped the handy hunter round and finished second and fourth in two of the over fences classes. Catch Me, an eight year-old warmblood, was purchased by Gochman three weeks ago. Stewart is currently showing Catch Me in the First Year Green Hunters to get him ready for Becky Gochman to do in the Amateur-Owner Hunters later in the year. “He [Catch Me] is very straight forward, has a big step and jumps great. He is going to make a great horse for Becky [Gochman],” Stewart commented.
