Samantha Taylor Retires Olympic Partner Livewire
Livewire was born in Quesnel, British Columbia in the spring of 1998. Breeder, Tia Groves, raised Livewire for his first few years until Samantha Taylor came across this special horse. Samantha purchased Livewire as a two year old and she immediately saw what a special horse Livewire was. He was such an impressive jumper, even as a baby. Livewire went on to wow the world with his jumping ability as he went on to establish himself as an upper level event horse.
Livewire competed at the Advanced level of Eventing for four years. In this time he placed seventh at the Jersey Fresh CCI***, tenth at the Fair Hill CCI***, was the highest placed Canadian at the Wit’s End World Cup Qualifier and was a member of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Team. These are only a few of the great things that Livewire accomplished in his career as an Advanced Event horse.
