Dressed In A Rush - Trained and ridden by Natalya Bretherton - Senior Youth

Dressed In A Rush is only a 2yo when he accomplished all of the following in both Youth and Open events. He has been shown successfully at National and State levels as well as representing School Sporting Teams, open dressage and pony club events. He will continue to be shown in EFA in 2010 and is currently out performing his sire in dressage test scores. He will eventually be entering the world of eventing and show jumping. This young horse will be a star of the future.... there is no doubt.

Natalya has since been competing in showjumping and one day eventing, the most recent at the Scone CNC One Day Event. Scone One Day event is a qualifying event for serious competitors to qualify for international competition, so Natalya is competing against some serious competition. Whilst competing, Natalya had a clear round of cross country, show jumping and competed successfully in the dressage component. This is only the start of Natalya's and Coco (aka Impressive Kitty)'s careers in eventing. Natalya may not be competing in western events but she is seriously competing in bigger and more notable events than the world of western can provide! Watch this space for more updates of what a youth competing in non traditional paints can do.
