Springfest kicked off on Tuesday and Wednesday (April 16-17) with the Super Mario Steeple, a lengthy, challenging race celebrating the mushroom-eating adventures of Mario. The race is the first part of Springfest, a six-event, week-long extravaganza at Blackwater Farm.
“Super Mario reminds me of when I was younger and used to eat mushrooms,” said Miss Winnie Blackwater, stable mistress and owner. “I also like when the ponies suffer,” she added.
Congratulations to the ponies who ran in the race!
