Alex and Pie seen here in action earlier this year
With the Equestriad event happening on her doorstep (well only an hour and a half away) and Werribee eight hours away there wasn’t really a choice over which event Alex should go to … obviously Werribee! The reason was that while Equestriad were running their CNC event Werribee were running CIC classes and because Alex is hoping to run her mare Parodie at the Lynton CCI3* in October she needed a CIC qualifier.
We caught up with Alex as she was doing a quick turn around. Having arrived home from Werribee on Monday by Tuesday she was on her way to the ski fields for a bit of R&R. Click on the icon below to hear how much she enjoyed the weekend and how the event was almost cancelled because of the lack of helpers (and about the offer of $100 for people to come a jump judge!)
To see some of the CIC3* country course click on the video below and watch Alex and 'Pie' tackel the course and then the 3* show jumping, which took place in the indoor arena
