2010 ~ Show Season

After a successful Spring of 2010 Season, Stephanie and Ollie moved back to The Plains, Virginia. After Ollie's month of R&R after the Rolex Kentucky CCI 4*, they began preparing for their fall season with big hopes of representing Canada at the World Equestrian Games in Lexington, Kentucky.
 
Preparations for their fall season included weekly, and sometimes twice weekly lessons with David O'Connor. They warmed up at the Waredaca Horse Trials, competing at the Intermediate level on August 13th. Following 12 weeks of intense work in the dressage, jumping and fitness aspects of their training, Stephanie was awarded a spot on the team for the WEG!
 
Stephanie and Ollie have reached a level of success that was so beyond their expectations when they first came together as a very green team over 6 years ago. Stephanie looks forward to several more years of learning and competing at the top of the game.
