Dressed Enough - Ridden by Natalya Bretherton

 

Dressed Enough had his debut into show jumping at the Upper Hunter Championships in July 2011.

At the end of the Championhips he was awarded Reserve Champion for his respective division.

An outstanding effort after gaining two seconds and a fifth out of four events. We knew he had show jumping ability, and now he is well on his way to becoming a proficient and reliable show jumper.
