Catching up:
The press releases say one thing; the
applications with USEF say another and the Village or
Wellington and residence are all confused as to what
is happening. Yes folks – turmoil in Wellington over
dressage in Wellington. Who woulda thought? Stay
tuned.
Congratulations to
Marilyn Little-Meredith
for winning
her frst CIC3* three day event at Plantation Field with RF
Rovano Rex on September 18th. That’s not too shabby
a result for a “newbie” eventer ~ her experience as a
grand prix show jumper must have helped her at some
point, dontcha think??
Jennifer Anstey
the Editor of

Lewis Parker
after her Grandfather.
Animals To Wear

Guenter Seidel
was at Collecting Gaits Farm/USEF
National Dressage Championships but not in the saddle.
Instead he was there to cheer on all his California friends
who competed.
Guenter Seidel
and
Dick and Jane Brown
have
ended their 20-year relationship, it seems. Hard to
Dressage rider Caroline Roffman rode Beemer, owned by her
trainer Lars Petersen and Global Dressage, to the win in the

It was a weekend to remember for American Dressage rider
Endel Ots at the 2011 Collecting Gaits Farm/USEF Festival
of Champions. Ots rode away from the show as the alternate
for the U.S. Dressage Team headed to the Pan Am Games in
Mexico and as the winner of a brand new saddle from Custom
Saddlery. Ots won the saddle through Custom Saddlery’s All
American Saddle Fit Challenge raffe, a program designed to
bring awareness to the fact that all saddles need to ft both the
horse and rider properly.
All smiles! Happy rider Cesar Parra with Grandioso’s
owner Michael Davis after receiving word that they
made the US team for the Pan Ams. What to wear in
Guadalajara?
