2012 Goals: To qualify all my rides for the National Championships and be placed at their various levels.
Top Tips:
- Take your time
- Cool down is just as important as warm-up for the horse’s muscles
- Form a partnership with your horse, I teach mine tricks in the stable
- My horses see the chiropractor regularly to help keep them in shape
- In a test stay focused and alert, always think ahead and don’t dwell.
- Plan your competition season well in advanced and base it on your horses’ fitness and strength.
Personal highpoint: Winning the Winter Inter I Music Championships.
Memorable Horses: Miss Sylvine, she was amazing but rather grumpy! I competed her at Junior level, and we had such a great relationship.
