Hunters

Continued from page A-1

The long, rolling course drew positive remarks from riders competing as it offered diversity from the regular coops found in most hunt countries. In addition to stone walls, man-made rail jumps, line fences and natural aikens, riders had to negotiate stream crossings and actually jump one of the forbidding but inviting timber fences on the race course.

“This course offered us a little bit of everything,” said Janet O’Keefe, winner of the adult division with partner Ginny McCarty. “Stone walls, chestnut rails, panels . . . something for everyone.”

O’Keefe and McCarty hunt with the Rappahannock hounds. They rode Formal Attire and Jack, respectively, to win their division in a time of 13:46.01.

“The optimum time was set at 13:42,” said Riddell. “Of all the teams who rode, 19 of them were within one minute of the ideal time . . . a true hunting pace.”

“I thought our time was about right,” offered McCarty. “I was happy with our speed, especially when we were told that we won.”
