Her smile says everything, but her style and her way of riding her horses just makes a very light and easy picture. Her two mares for this weekend in Frankfurt just did their best, and as Jessica explains at the subsequent interview with Clipmyhorse, she is just trying to build up confidence for her horses every time she goes into the arena.
Zaire did both tests this weekend with any technical issues and with personal best for the Grand Prix with impressive 77,220%.
Louisdor Preis final with future top stars (H2R favorites Dalera BB, Faustus and Carlos)
Today´s Louisdor Preis final and yesterday´s Nürnberger Burg-Pokal final are both some of the very highlights of the year, always with top riders and showing new top horses. And this years Louisdor final was without exception.
For the young trakehner mare TSF Dalera BB it was just her 3rd indoor event ever, and of course Jessica was full of prayers for this talented high quality mare. Lightness, suppleness and ability are the three main words for today´s winning performance for the prestigious young Grand Prix horse Louisdor Preis final.
