moving them on to a new rider, and starting all over again.
You compete in Florida and also at Dressage at Devon. What
is the energy like at Devon?
I think Devon is one of the most fun horse shows of the season,
the atmosphere and energy is always terrifc, the footing is great
now in all the arenas, even if it rains, and of course, freestyle night
is always a full house and action packed. It is also such a big
breed show, so it’s fun to get there early and watch.
Do you have a motto?
You can sleep when you’re dead!
What is your greatest extravagance?
I love to travel! I am looking very forward to a trip in May with my
daughter and one of my good dressage friends and her mother.
We are starting in Turkey and ending in Spain. I love good food,
good wine and good company. Can’t wait, but I will miss my
horses!!
