Lynn Wins Suregrow Fertiliser Regional Elementary Freestyle Silver Title

Dressage Trainer and Pilates Teacher Lynn Perry was delighted to take the Regional Champion title at Easton and Otley College in the Suregrow Elementary Freestyle Music Silver class.

Lynn and Starmaker took the winner’s rosette on a score of 71.923%, to qualify for the British Dressage Winter Championships.

Based at First Choice Dressage in Suffolk, Lynn is a highly respected and fully qualified dressage coach and has been successfully training riders and horses for more than 20 years.

Starmaker, known at home as Sparky is a homebred eight-year-old, 15.3hh chestnut gelding, by Showmaker out of Lynn’s mare Little Lady.

Currently Lynn has three horses competing from Novice to Advanced medium, all homebred and home produced, and has several youngsters waiting in the wings from yearlings upwards.

Said Lynn: “I was really pleased with how well we kept to all the timings in the music that emphasised the transitions and medium paces.

“I think Sparky was a little tense as he wasn’t as forward as he normally is, so I felt parts of the test could have been more expressive.

“There are things we hope to improve on for the championships but I was surprised and also elated to win and it makes all the hard work worthwhile.”
