Despite having pressures from GCSE exams, her results are continuing to improve. She has a very mature attitude to training and yet always retains a sense of fun and sportsmanship, making the trainers job much easier."
"Claire is using her successes and experiences at Pony level as a platform for her future as a senior rider. She is most definately looking at the bigger picture.
