St. Barths and Exponential: Top-placing thoroughbreds at Rolex

Update: How could I have forgotten to include the wonderful writeup that the CANTER Calabria Rose blog does for the Thoroughbreds of Rolex. See the 2011 post, which lists the thoroughbreds competing at Rolex and their histories...

Hannah Sue Barnett and St. Barths finished 8th while Canadian-bred thoroughbred Exponential finished 7th. Both are compact types, and handy-looking, and both are such good boys! I should mention that Anthony Patch, an OTTB, had a good performance overall, including a great dressage test with a lengthening that would be the envy of many a warmblood. Lainey alluded to some tension in the test, but frankly I felt that the judges were a little harsh with their scores.
