I feel connected to my horse when:
We are working as a team: a brave, steady cross-country ride or a rhythmical, balanced show jump round... or a horse lifting its back in a lovely topline that is heaven to be sitting on.
Why I love Kerrits:
The design and the fabrics are stylish and very practical for life around horses as well as fashionable on the street.
My most memorable moment as a rider:
Too many to count, but likely riding Hideaway's Erin Go Bragh around his first Advanced event. The incredible courage and "try" that horse had, made my heart sking.
My favorite place to buy Kerrits:
