Charlotte goes for girl power!
Event rider Charlotte Agnew from Kelso, Scotland is hoping her new horse Pavonita provides her with some real girl power this season!
Charlotte (22), a successful eventer, is on the British Equestrian Federation’s UK Sport funded World Class Development Programme - which works with talented riders to maximize their potential and deliver success.
Sadly 2009 wasn’t the best for Charlotte as she lost her top ride Little Beau after a freak accident in the field. Pavonita, a nine year old bay mare who has competed up to Novice level, was bought from Germany to help strengthen Charlotte’s continued chances of success in the future.
“Losing Little Beau last year was devastating,” said Charlotte. “Pavonita has a lot to do to step into his shoes, but we’re all very excited about her. She’s got an amazing jump and is a really fun horse – we are currently looking for potential owners who might want a share in her.”
Charlotte who is currently studying English Literature at Edinburgh University, will be moving (with her horses) to Cirencester after her finals in May.
The World Class Programme incorporates the three Olympic sports of dressage, eventing, show jumping and the Paralympic sport of para-equestrian dressage. It comprises the Performance and Development programmes plus the Equine Pathway.
The aim of the Programme is to have in place a sustainable system that can deliver more medals on the international stage now and in the future. The Programme has been funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, through Exchequer and National Lottery funds, via UK Sport since 1998.
