Canceled Shows/injuries
still holding first place
We can only guess it started with some good old horsing around in pasture- causing a serious bone bruise in the hind leg, then later causing a sore front hoof by overcompensation- to then spooking in the wash rack enclosure during his care when the nearby grain silo made a huge and scary noise, causing more hind legs lacerations...
Not much of a trifecta is it?! lol
More of a "it comes in 3s" type of situation. Rough summer.
Trying to get him healed and prevent more injuries as Havoc/Malacrianza is not one to appreciate stall rest or solo pen time.

are still holding onto their first place so far in the zone as of August 18, 2026 after only 5 shows competed this season, compared to 12 shows in second place...
(11 weeks off due to injury.)
Another motivation behind the PER (Performance Efficiency Rating metric)

Samuelle Leerkamp & Malacrianza were excited to be back at Ledges for Medal finals and USHJA zone 5 HOTY!
Bringing home a 1st🥇, a 2nd🥈and a 3rd🥉 place in their 4 trips 💫
Some really fun rides had and a hard lesson learned: unlike all other show grounds attended- the power and speed round required you to stop and exit after the power portion if you dropped a pole, you did not get to continue in the speed round. No fun! Also the confusion got them disqualified. Aouch!
