Chapter 7: Holiday Reunion
The last two days of the first show on the Florida Winter Circuit went smoothly. The Reynolds group had done well for itself. Bert had won the Youth All Around High Point Championship as well as several champion awards for individual events. Two amateurs had won individual awards as well. Tango had won the Junior Western Pleasure Championship for Hank and Desi had won the senior with Brad riding. Brad was happy with that accomplishment, and in addition, winning the amateur pleasure championship.
The real buzz around the fairgrounds was Reggie. When word somehow got out that he was riding with Hank many folks, some complete strangers, came up to Brad to express concern and disbelief that Hank would take a chance on this character from the hunter-jumper world.
