COMPETITION HORSES
Karen is a seasoned competitor having principally competed on horses she has bred. At present her main competition horse is Elite Destiny.
Karen has been a huge influence in my dressage journey and is the voice in my head when I’m riding. Karen has helped me get the very best out of my eventers; the most challenging of these my small Hanoverian mare by Falsterbo, Fancy Dress. Built quite downhill and in the beginning had a rather dreadful “sewing machine” trot, with Karen’s help she developed into a very competitive little mare and received quite a few 9’s for her trot work with no sewing machines in sight.
I have no doubt it was Karen’s advice and guidance that helped me achieve so much with Fancy including Eventing Qld – National Horse and Rider of the Year, and Eventing NSW State Champion EVA95.
Eventing is tough – you have to be a jack of all trades, and thankfully I have a great coach that’s helped me to master the dressage phase.
Karen, I salute you!
