NOVEMBER 25 MIDWEEK MADNESS SPECIAL!

Profile Information

About Me:
I have been training with Canadian Olympian Belinda Trussell for the past 11 years at Oakcrest Farms. I have been taking regular clinics with seven time Olympian Christilot Boylen for the past 4 years as well.

I was a member of the 5th placing Canadian Dressage Young Rider Team in 2007 and placed 11th individually.

I made my Grand Prix debut this past summer with my horse Cipriano, owned by Sonia Ucci.

I'm very active in my local dressage club Toronto CADORA. I'm a member of the Executive Board, Chair of the Youth Committee and Editor of the newsletter.

Hi Andrea. Thanks for adding me as a friend, and my boy thanks you for the compliment. :) He is a sweetie... he loves cuddles and he tries very hard to do what is asked of him (usually *lol*).

Hi Andrea:
No I did not remember my password but Sherri & Dorothy put me on during the last reunion meeting & started me over again.
Its fun to have a response via my email - that was you! I need to sit down & navigate this site as there are many forums that intrigue me that I did not know existed.
Thanks for responding, Pam

There's a few small, local dressage shows that my barn goes to, like Heroncrest Stables Horse Show and I may enter a few classes if my trainer is okay with it. I used to show western, but those days are behind me =)

He severed his tendon last February. Electric fence. Hasn't ever been a problem til then. Took him to Dreamcrest while Kelly and Ian were away and started him up after a year off. Was great!! Tracking up and forward and awesome!!! With any luck I'd like to get him to a bronze dressage show this year. At least that's the plan!!!

So what's the new horses name and how wonderful is he/she?

As a DJ I'm willing to go anywhere! Sometimes overnight accom. is needed, and I haven't been flown anywhere yet, but I'm always up for an adventure.

I'm still enjoying taking care of Robin's barn, and she is wonderful about me having to go be a DJ. Someday I hope it will pay for a horse. But then the hard part comes in finding the right one.

And how is the group at Belinda's. Big changes or still pretty much the same?
I know John moved in but I hadn't heard much else. Say Hi for me.

BARGAINS IN THE BARN
By: SARAH MASLIN NIR
Published: October 28, 2009


WHEN Janet Rizzo decided to buy a second horse after her first one was sidelined by an injury, she wanted a mount of comparable ability. She expected to pay a price similar to the $70,000 she spent on her first, 11 years earlier.

But in this withered economy, Surfer Girl, the 12-year-old chestnut mare she brought home f… Continue
