About Shawan Downs Trophies
MCTA Horse Trials Photo History
This is the only photo we can find from the very first MCTA Horse Trials, held at the Richard N. Jackson family’s Jackson Hole Farm in Upperco on June 18, 1972. It shows Mardi Frey, a recent graduate of Lake Erie College, where she had done a little eventing, on “Possum,” whose name was upgraded to Poker Stakes (he’d reputedly once been won in a game) for the occasion. Long-time horsewoman and owner Mrs. Wallace P. Neilson entered him simply to support the new organization, of which her daughter Jane and Mardi’s sister Ruth were founding members. He did manage an 8th-place ribbon, though!
