My road to the AEC this year started off with a suspensory injury to my horse Brio and a back injury for myself. I was hoping that this would be the year that I qualify, and me and my daughter would be able to ride and compete together at the AEC, but as fate has it, I will be her groom and will be enjoying every moment cheering my daughter Madeline and her faithful stead Carson, aka "Hope to star" in this spectacular event.

I do not want to write this post… Nope, I want to stomp, stomp and pound my knees…. I DON’T WANNA WRITE THIS POST. No, no, no… Phew, that felt really good! I believe it was "the Don" who said one should never underestimate the power of a good Diva fit!

May-Daze Horse Trial went UNBELIEVABLY well! Dressage was finished with a 35.0. Not amazing, but it was enough to put us in 3rd out of about 15 riders I believe! Stadium was double clear, the 2 people ahead of me had faults, and I was bounced up to the lead!

Bit of Britain presents a challenge for the lower levels across America in their efforts to keep people excited about competing in the sport of Eventing! John Nunn, owner of Bit of Britain, thought, “Shouldn’t the lower level event riders feel as though their efforts are rewarded?” It’s this thought that led Nunn to create the Chase the Challenge Across America.
