In 2013 Nelis LSI continues to win Championships at all the shows he enters in various divisions, including Show Hack, Dressage Hack, Hunt Seat, Show Pleasure Driving, Walk Trot and Carriage Pleasure Driving. With excellent placings at ADS events at Cazenovia and East Aurora, he is placing well in Working, Turn Out and Reinsmanship.
