In more great Burro work outside the classroom, Bryndle Sveen and her horse, “Patrick” Spooks Gotta Boom, were crowned Youth 13 & Under Champions at the All American Quarter Horse Congress, one of the largest single-breed horse shows in the world!
The duo put together an outstanding 217 ½-point ride to take home the championship title!
Bryndle trains alongside her parents through their family business, Freiheit Reiners, where she has dedicated countless hours to developing her skills, horsemanship, and partnership with her horses.
Her hard work is certainly paying off! Bryndle and Patrick are also currently ranked Top 10 in the nation in the NRHA Youth 13 & Under division.
