PODCAST: Remembering Philippa Humphreys
United States Eventing Association (USEA) CEO Rob Burk and United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) Managing Director of Eventing Joanie Morris speak on the tragic death of British rider Philippa Humphreys. Philippa, 33, of Rockford, Mich. and her own 13-year-old KWPN/Thoroughbred gelding, Rich N Famous, had a fall while competing in the CCI*** cross-country at the Jersey Fresh International Three-Day Event on Saturday, May 14, 2016.
Philippa’s long-time student Liz Lund also joins us on the show and shares many special memories of Philippa, an amazing horsewoman, trainer, mother and friend.
The USEA will continue to push forward with our Collapsible Fence Study in efforts to continue to make eventing safer. You can find more information here, and you can donate here.
A fundraising page has been set up by Joanie Morris in honor of Philippa Humphreys to benefit the future college education of her daughter Millie.
