1st Place and Best Condition day 2. Christoph and Stars Aflame
The second place finish on the third day of Color Country when Christoph rode Double Zell marks the end of a 17 ride winning streak. Christoph and "Zell" had won 17 consecutive rides. I'm not sure if that was an AERC record but I would bet it was close. The best part of the story is how the streak was broken.

Emily Bradly's horse coliced the day before and Christoph not only offered Emily his horse DWA Powerball but offered to sponsor the junior rider. Christoph and Emily had a great day but Christoph couldn't do what he needed to keep the streak alive. The sponsoring and mentoring of the junior rider was more important. Christoph is a class act. Congrats on the streak and congrats on letting it go over opportunities that are more important.
Does anyone know the longest AERC win streak without being pulled? I would bet 17 is the record or close to it?
Mmm, that Express is a fine looking horse!
