A horse rider from New Hampshire in the United States clinched a prestigious dressage event held recently.

Keene resident Jocelyn Wiese and her horse Lamborghini clinched the Brentina Cup title which was held at the US Equestrian Foundation’s Dressage Festival Champions in Gladstone, New Jersey. The competition was open for riders ages 20 to 28. Wiese is currently 21 and her horse is 13 years of age.

The young rider is a junior at the University of Maryland. She stated in an interview that she’s going to the right direction of becoming a major force in the dressage horse racing events.
Dressage is a challenging equestrian sport wherein the rider and the horse execute a series of movements. This sport is said to be the oldest equestrian event.

The 21-year old revealed that she started riding horses at the age of three in their humble family farm. She then focused her attention on dressage contests. She considered her recent triumph as the biggest one yet and she’s looking forward to compete in national and international competitions in the future.

Wiese and Lamborghini have been working and competing together for the past five years.
