Disqualification

After running, shooting, and swimming, Libby completed the tetrathlon in the showjumping ring atop Cookie, our haflinger pony whose dazzling yet rotund beauty is no reflection of her personality. Following the designated course, they cantered steadily in swooping arches, breaking stride only to runout, refuse, or just plain crash through each fence. After their disqualification,  Libby took revenge by staying seated as Cookie arched her back to pee, instead of standing in her stirrups to offer comfort, as is customary. Though many years have passed, Libby continues this senseless punishment, still trying to avenge the honor she lost that day.
