Salope: My first show in my borrowed shadbelly with my new horse, Salope, at Prix St. Georges.
"Sally" has been trained to Grand Prix and was found for me in Germany by my trainer, Alex Gerding. (See info about
Alex on the "News and Clinics" page.) It's such a pleasure to learn FEI on a horse that can teach me. She's truly
a gift. Sally has received many compliments from judges/trainers who have seen her: Gerd Zuther, Linda Zang, Stephen Clarke and Janet Foy. (Photo by Fire and Earth Photography)
