But some are lucky enough to Mown a pony and to be rising superstars in the show ring. Lily Grace McCormick, of Charlotte, North Carolina, is definitely a superstar in the making and has also proven herself in the ultimate test — Pony Finals. Her love for horses began when Lily Grace was 3 years old and her mother, Michele, placed her on the back of a pony at the Iowa State Fair. Little did Michele know that this short pony ride would be the beginning of a very prosperous riding career. “I’m really proud of Lily Grace; she’s done a great job,” said Michele. “She’s amazing when she goes into the ring with the grace she shows. I don’t know if I could do that as well. She carries herself so well and knows what she has to do to get the job done and done well. She does everything to the best of her ability.” Lily Grace began riding at the Carolina Country Acres Farm in North Carolina. This relationship lasted until a year before Lily Grace went to Pony Finals in 2013, when she went to train with Jason Schlotterback at Terranova Farms in Lily Grace and Jason Waxhaw, North Carolina. While training with Jason, Lily Grace bought her pony, Rainbow’s Northern Belle, on whom she competed at Pony Finals. meant for each other.” Belle and Lily Grace started their partnership at the local show circuit, PHJA, Lily Grace is equally proud of her pony, Belle. winning the Tonya Patterson Memorial Trophy for high-point age group in “Belle is 29 and I’ve had her for almost two equitation, PHJA 11-and-under Equitation Champion, Reserve Champion in years,” said Lily Grace.
