The Sportsmanship Award goes to
Caroline Roffman
,
who has been an excellent sport about being removed from
contention for the
Alltech World Equestrian Games in
Normandy.
The USEF released a press release naming the
team and clarifying: “It was felt that with just six months of
competing at the Grand Prix level it was too soon to ask the
talented combination of Caroline Roffman and her 11-year-
old Hanoverian mare, Her Highness O, to contend with the
World Championship atmosphere of the 2014 Alltech FEI
World Equestrian Games.” While Caroline is disappointed,
she continues to support her team and dreams of riding for
the United States at a future date. Now, that’s a gold medal
attitude!
Carol Cohen
is globe trotting to Denmark with her daughter
Rebecca
to visit horses they haven’t seen in a while, like
her stallion
Comeback II
, now 23 years old, and Rebecca’s
former dressage pony
Tai Calido
. FYI: Comback is the daddy
of
Tina Konyot
’s 2014 WEG horse,
Calecto V.

Weber
