Young Rider Lindsay Challenges Her Elders in USEF National Dressage Championships

Not Discouraged by Missing Getting Ribbon First Day

Although Lindsay wrapped up her first day at the finals without getting a ribbon, in the Prix St. Georges, it hasn’t discouraged her.

“When I got here, it was a little bit of a shock. But everyone here helped me out and explained things (about the facility) to me,” says Lindsay. “I got goose bumps when I walked around the (main) arena but I took pictures for the scrapbook that I keep for my memories,” she adds.

Mostly, though, “I keep remembering I as here for reason. It’s an honor to be in the same league as (grand prix riders) Steffen (Peters) and Charlotte (Bredahl Baker).”
