Cowboy Charisma Award for a Mare

     Cowboy Charisma was an Appendix Quarter Horse mare owned by Stephanie Corum.  Charisma loved the spotlight of being the only one in the dressage ring and was very successful through first level.  However, as a mare, she posed challenges for her rider.  The purpose of this award is to acknowledge the partnership that must exist between mare and rider for the combination to be successful.
     Awarded to the horse and rider combination that have the highest average scores earned on a mare.
