Dreams come true at Horses and Dreams in Hagen, Germany

Mary Hanna and Boogie Woogie produce two outstanding tests to come second in the Prix St George and win the Inter 1 with an amazing score of 74.89%. Not only was this Mary’s highest international score ever, it is Australia’s highest score to date at a European International Show at that level.

Mary : I feel like I stepped into a dream world, Never did I believe I would win in such a show as Hagen. It just shows you can achieve anything with the right attitude, a great horse and a great team around you… and I really hope that this achievement inspires Aussie riders to think big. I am so thankful to Patrik and the whole team at outstanding stables, Lyndal and Malin, especially as I feel so much support.

Patrik has taken my training to a whole other level and I am really enjoying training with him and I am also really enjoying competition preparation as he really gives me the calmness and confidence to ride well. I still feel like I have to pinch myself and I am so proud of Boogie.
