New Zealand’s sole FEI World Championships dressage representative Wendi Williamson feels she can almost heave a sigh of relief. The plane tickets are booked for both her and Don Vito MH, their training is continuing well and her fundraising campaign starting to move . . . but most importantly, Junior as her beloved equine partner, is feeling the best he has in a year-and-a-half. 🛬

She can’t wait to be part of a bigger team. “The eventing and showjumping is always very exciting to watch and it will be a real buzz to be part of the wider New Zealand team.” 🌿🥝

A fundraiser for Wendi and Junior is being held at the Bartley Riding School in Whitford on Friday (July 10). Spectators will have a chance to see a masterclass from the combination in training and warmed up by high performance dressage manager Christine Weal. They will also perform their World Championships freestyle to music. Up-and-coming youngsters Piper Crake and Samantha Belsham, who this year represented New Zealand in Australia, will perform a pas de deux. There will also be trade stands, raffles, wine, cheese and plenty of socialising to be had!
