EC Photo of the Day: The First Taste of Sun Circuit Success
Photo by official Sun Circuit photographer Jeff Kirkbride Photography.
The 2026 Arizona Sun Circuit was clearly a special event, and for Arizona resident Kelsey Marriott, it also marked a career first. She earned a unanimous win on March 5th in her horsemanship class with partner “Isnt She So Tuff,” and she says she owes it all to her trainer, Brittany Russell Brown.
“I never thought I could have smooth rides and come out with a smile on my face! Thank you Sandi Lopez and Briar Echols for allowing Belle and I to compete here at the Arizona Sun Circuit. I honestly cried a little when I heard the announcer say my name,” she says.
Congratulations, Kelsey! If you have a great photo of the day, please email it to: Delores.Kuhlwein@EquineChronicle.com.
