Background
I began riding as a 6yo with a very fat little pony. After going through the ranks of pony club and interschool, I started official competition with a past horse, Fairbanks Gangster. Training Gangster from novice to prix st George and being selected onto the National YR Squad. After working in dressage stables in Germany and Australia I have started my own business training dressage horses. In August 2006 I bought an inexperienced prelim horse called Widelo. After discovering Widelo's amazing trainability he has progressed in leaps and bounds. With the help of my coach Jenny, Widelo moved from Novice to PSG in 8 months.
Goals for 2008: Keep Widelo fit and Healthy and train towards the 2008 YR World Cup. To ride all of my horses to their potential.

Anything else you'd like to tell us about you or your horse: Widelo has endless amounts of energy and spends his entire day causing trouble and terrorising the other horses.
