E-Dressage: Commitment to Competition | Weekly Interviews with Top Dressage Riders | Dressage Succes...

Since joining the pony club at the age of 9, Lucy Straker has competed successfully in various equestrian disciplines, including show jumping and dressage. In 1993 she became Junior National Dressage Champion at the Malvern Championships. After working on a showjumping yard for several years and competing up to 1.25m classes, Lucy was well and truly bitten by the dressage bug in 1999, and this became her passion from then on. Lucy now rides her own Lionheart II, which she bought from a just-backed 4 year-old to a Grand Prix success, including placing at the Hartpury CDI3* in 2010. Lucy is also producing her other horse 'Farramir', having had some good results at Intermediate level at Hartpury in 2013, as well as progressing 'Deejy Hello' through the Young Horse Classes.
