Leslie Morse and Kingston Win FEI Grand Prix CDI 3* at Zada Enterprises, LLC WEF Dressage Classic CDI 3*/Y

Morse Going For it This Weekend

Morse also has her sites set on the World Cup Final in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, April 20-24, with Tip Top. She is qualified to compete in the 2006 USEF National Grand Prix Freestyle Championship/U.S. League Final CDI-W, which will be held on Friday and Saturday nights (March 17-18) in conjunction with the Zada Enterprises, LLC WEF Dressage Classic. That competition will determine the two riders that will represent the United States at the World Cup Final.

Looking ahead, Morse says she also plans to qualify for the Selection Trials for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games – with either horse. “We’ll wait and see what comes at the right time,” she said.

Morse acknowledged that the four-ring Zada Enterprises, LLC WEF Dressage Classic CDI 3*/Y is “a huge event” and noted, “I just feel so lucky to have two horses here in it and so fortunate to have been able to bring them. It’s just a fabulous experience so far. I’m really looking forward to a fun weekend. It’s a great way to start!”
