** Photo by Jasmine Minbashian **Today Fox Bay's Website is featuring this photo of Taryn & Bert from the Derby on Sunday. She road twice in the pairs event, a so-much-fun round of seventeen jumps where the riders must switch off every four jumps.
So rider one jumps 1-4 & 9-12, and rider two jumps 5-8 & 13-16. If a horse refuses a jump the other rider must take over for their partner. This means both riders must be alert and ready to instantly take over.
After completing sixteen jumps the riders must re-group and take the seventeenth jump side-by-side. The team who completes the course in the least ammount of time wins. Taryn and her partner took second, and were one of the most successful teams at the final side-by-side jump.
This is their photo-finish shot taken by Fox Bay photographer Jasmine Minbashian. Do they look happy and excited or what!
