Precision was key for Madison Goetzmann and Prestigious as they took home an early win in the first phase of the Neue Schule/USEF Jr. Jumper Championships at the 73rd Pennsylvania National Horse Show. They won the first Phase, a faults converted into seconds competition, with a fault free round in 58.112 seconds. Samantha Cohen aboard Carmen, who held the lead early in the class took second with a time of 58.432 seconds, and Isabella Bleu Baxter with Jahil took third in 59.971 seconds. The course, designed by Ken Krome of Westminster,MD, featured eleven jumps with thirteen jumping efforts at 1.40m with a time allowed of 73 seconds. In a field of 29, Madison Goetzmann piloted her own Prestigious, an 11-year-old bay Westphalian gelding, produced a round that was quick, tactical, and above all, fault free. Making short work of course, Goetzmann and Prestigious were one of only eight horse-and-rider combinations to go clear.
