It was such an honour to be able to show such an incredible mare and bring her out of retirement to kick off her show career again! A huge thank you to Matt and Jodi for the opportunity I am beyond thankful!

Thank you to all my barn helpers behind the scenes, you guys are incredible and I would not be able to do what I do with out you!
A huge shoutout to the best mentor and idol, Sara Simons, all your teachings over the last few years has paid off. Now proud to say I have had some of the best results in the trail! One class I was determined to do great in.
Thank you to the committee members and sponsors of such a fabulous run show. To all the other trainers for the encouragement and supportiveness, it is great to see in our industry everyone enjoying the beautiful sport we do.
