Horses!

It's Chagrin Valley Hunter Jumper Classic Time! Gorgeous, immaculately groomed hunters, fierce jumpers, and, of course, mud. Because it's Ohio and a horse show. Today was nice and cool, though, good for the horses and for the hunter riders in their nice wool hunt coats.

Looking for her next fence.


Sometimes, the rider's expressions are just priceless. He had a decent round, despite the "I'm going to die" look.


This pair knows their business.


Sometimes, the horses' expressions are priceless, too. No way, Jack!


Elegant turn out.


Cute fence.


Pure power.


Just happy to be here.


A little bit of mud after the warm-up.


Texting the critique.


The horse show mantra: hurry up and wait.


Admission is free through July 9 (tomorrow). You can find more information on their website:http://clevelandhorseshow.com.
