The North American Junior and Young Rider Championship Zone 10 team finals took place at the Blenheim June Classic I, June 6-10 at the Rancho Mission Viejo Riding Park in San Juan Capistrano.

Both Junior and Young Riders rode towards a cumulative high point standing over the course of the week. By Sunday, the top ten riders were named to each team. The top four riders from Junior and Young Riders are named to the team with the fifth rider named as the team alternate and fifth individual rider.

The Junior teams are 14-18 year-olds tested over a 1.40m track. Young Riders are 16-21 competing over  1.50m jumps. Both teams will continue on to the NAJYRC Finals, July 17-22 at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington.

Last year in the YR division, California’s Zone 10 took silver. Sage Flynn and Hot Pants are the only returning pair. For more info visit www.youngriders.org.
