What is the biggest risk that you have taken? What pushed you to do it? For Donna and Robert Martin of Blue Ridge Trailer Sales & Service in Ruckersville,

VA, it was the launch of the BLUE RIDGE trailer – a custom aluminum trailer built exclusively for them. It wasn’t a decision made lightly, but without a doubt it was a gutsy move during an economic downturn. For the Martin’s and Blue Ridge Trailers, it turned out to be the right choice.

First and foremost, the staff at Blue Ridge Trailers offers over 100 years of combined experience in trailering. Their extensive knowledge has allowed them to successfully guide satisfi ed customers to quality purchases since 1999. As a horse owner herself, Donna had gone through the process of purchasing a trailer and ran into challenges. “They all looked alike and I could not make an informed decision. Instead of teaching me about what construction, fl oor plan, and features that would suit me and my horses, the sales people I met just tried to sell me a trailer.”

That search and the realization that other horse owners must be facing the same challenges, led Donna and Robert to collaborate with their sales staff and a long-time trailer manufacturer to create the BLUE RIDGE trailers. “We did it because we were convinced that a better, stronger, more functional product could be built with all the features necessary to make trailering safe for the horse and easy to use for the horse owner,” explains Donna. Hundreds of hours were spent pouring over the design phase to ensure it met their strict standards at a competitive price. They were able to pull off the seemingly impossible and it has been a wild success.

The BLUE RIDGE line begins with an aluminum design chosen for its lack of corrosion and unbeatable resale value.

Many of the standard features included in the BLUE RIDGE trailers are costly optional extras in competitors’ trailers. A patented double-lined wall system using high-density insulation makes the inside safer for the horse, while protecting the

outside of the trailer. Also, the trailer is designed with a lined and insulated walk-on roof for maximum strength and a cooler interior. The inside includes a 20-year warranty “rumber” fl oor made by Rumber Materials Inc., (www.rumber.com). The trailer also features an array of furnishings such as its spring loaded rear ramp, tie back curtains, doors with windows, two stack adjustable saddle racks, seven hook bridle racks, a blanket bar and brush box as well as dome lights in the dress and horse areas. Add to that one of the longest and most comprehensive warranties in the industry with a three-year “hitch to bumper” warranty and a six-year structural warranty, both of which are transferable should you choose to sell your trailer.

“Our extensive experience has taught us what is safe and comfortable for the horse and easy to use for the owner,” says Donna. “We pride ourselves on educating horse owners, not selling trailers.” With that in mind, not only will Blue Ridge Trailers sell you the best trailer to meet your needs,

they will make sure you know how to safely haul your horses. They are also available after the sale for all maintenance and repair needs.

At Blue Ridge Trailers they have a saying, “Exceeding Expectations Every Day.” Their private label BLUE RIDGE trailers are doing just that. Time and again, customers are pleasantly surprised by the numerous amenities included. It’s worth your time to take a trip to Ruckersville and see for yourself!

New Helmet RulesBy USEF Communications

DepartmentThe Board of Directors during

this year’s United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) Annual Meeting approved new helmet rules for rid-ers in both eventing and dressage – just two weeks after dozens of stakeholders in equestrian sport met with the goal of improving rider safety across disciplines.

“If the technology is avail-able to reduce head injuries, the time to use it is now,” said USEF President David O’Connor. “I am very proud of our organization for taking this very important step. It is a huge direction of change.”

Briefl y, the fi rst rule change requires anyone on a horse to wear a ASTM/SEI-approved helmet at all times while mounted on competition grounds at U.S. nationally rated eventing competitions. The rule change is effec-tive immediately.

Further specifi cs regarding the changes to the rule for Protective Headgear for Eventing (EV 114.1) are available at http://www.usef.org/_IFrames/RuleBook/Changes/2011.aspx

The United States Eventing Association (USEA) helped shepherd the

rule change through the USEF commit-tees during USEF’s Annual Meeting.

“The attention to safety in eventing has led to a 40 percent decrease in rider injuries between 2007 and 2011,” said Malcolm Hook, USEF Eventing Safety Offi cer and chair of the USEF Eventing Technical Committee. ”The Eventing Technical Committee could see no reason to delay implementation of a

probably inevitable and statisti-cally justifi able rule change in an effort to continue this encouraging trend.”

The second rule change be-came effective March 1, 2011, for dressage. It requires anyone under 18 mounted on a horse to wear protective headgear while on horses that are competing only in FEI levels and tests at the Prix St. Georges level and above (in-cluding FEI Young Rider Tests, the USEF Developing Prix St. Georges Test and the USEF Brentina Cup Test).

Additional details regard-ing the changes to the rules for Protective Headgear for Dressage (DR120.5) are available at http://www.usef.org/_IFrames/RuleBook/Changes/2011.aspx.

Import Permits and

USDA Health Certifi catesThe Canadian Food Inspection

Agency confi rmed that import permits will continue to be required for the importation of semen and embryos from the U.S. into Canada during 2011. These import restrictions are a result of Contagious Equine Metritis (CEM) in the U.S.

Championship

Added to NAJYRC By Helen Murray For the fi rst time the Adequan FEI

North American Junior and Young Rider Championships presented by Gotham North (NAJYRC) will add a Junior Championship in the sport of reining in 2011. Reining joins the dressage, eventing and jumping disciplines in hosting International FEI champion-ships for Juniors and Young Riders. The three Olympic equestrian disciplines were expanded to offi cially include a junior championship in 2006. Reining has been included in this annual event since 2008. For the third consecutive year North America’s most promising up and coming reiners will compete in the Alltech Arena at the Kentucky Horse Park, which played host to the FEI World Reining Championships Presented by John Deere during the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games. These cham-pionships have been expanded in 2011 to encompass fi ve disciplines for the fi rst time with the inclusion of the sport of endurance. This year will mark the

fi rst-ever North American Young Rider Endurance Championship. NAJYRC will run from July 27-31, 2011, at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, KY. Qualifi cation procedures for the new ju-nior division will be available soon and posted online along with the 2011 Young Riders division procedures, which have been updated. For more information, please visit: www.youngriders.org.

Eventing Rule Changes The following eventing rule changes

were approved at the January 23 USEF Board meeting and are effective imme-diately:

In conjunction with GR1317, the following apply in the case of fall/ac-cident (or other injury likely to cause concussion) (as determined by qualifi ed medical personnel):

a. No loss of consciousness and no sign of concussion – No mandatory suspension;

b. No loss of consciousness but with brief symptoms of concussion e.g. con-fusion, loss of memory, altered mental state (all symptoms of concussion must have resolved within 15 minutes both at


rest and exercise) – minimum of seven days mandatory suspension. The day of injury counts as the fi rst day of suspen-sion period.

c. Any loss of consciousness, how-ever brief, or symptoms of concussion persisting after 15 minutes – minimum 21 days mandatory suspension. The day of injury counts as the fi rst day of the suspension period.

d. Notwithstanding the above rid-ers who have established a baseline neurocognitive skills level through a Federation approved testing program e.g. IMPACT test may return to competition upon submission to the Federation of certifi cation evidence confi rmation that they have passed an exam establishing that they have suffered no impairment of that level. In addition, they must submit clearance as required under GR1317.6.

e. All other riders may, at the expira-tion of the mandatory suspension period, return to competition by complying with the requirements of GR1317.5.

Also, changes were made to Faults at Obstacles:

a. Disobediences (1) First refusal, run-out or circle

– 20 penalties(2) Second refusal, run-out or circle

at the same obstacle – 40 penalties(3) Third refusal, run-out or circle at

the same obstacle – Elimination(4) Fourth penalized disobedience

on the entire course – Eliminationb. Falls(1) First fall of competitor –

*Elimination (RF)(2) First fall of horse – Mandatory

retirementTo facilitate accurate administra-

tion of EVIOS.3 (Loss of Establishment) Competitor Falls will be denoted as “RF” on offi cial score sheets and results.

AQHA Approves

New EventsCowboy Mounted Shooting is

now an AQHA approved event. This is a fast-action, timed event over specifi c courses with a high degree of speed and agility from the horse and skilled shoot-ing from the rider. Competitions will be held at existing Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association events. Approval privileges will be granted or denied by CMSA. All fi ve AQHA divisions may be offered which include Open, Amateur (Select Amateur), Youth, Novice Youth and Novice Amateur. Points will be awarded

in each division according to the existing point structure. Points and placing will be recorded on horses’ and exhibitors’ records. All points are eligible for exist-ing awards including register of merit, incentive fund, year-end high-point, etc. Please see Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association for specifi c rules governing each class.

Dressage has also been added as an AQHA approved event. AQHA will recognize these levels of dressage com-petition starting with the highest test in Training Level, continuing through First Level, Second Level, Third Level, Fourth Level, FEI Prix St. George, FEI Intermediate I, FEI Intermediate II, and FEI Grand Prix. Dressage will be offered and approved through USEF/USDF licensed competitions holding an AQHA approved class. Approval must be obtained through AQHA at least 60 days prior to the competition and approval fee is $50. A one-time license fee of $85 for the horse must be recorded with AQHA prior to the competition. The percentage score will be converted into a point value. Points will be awarded in each division and re-corded on horses’ records. All points are eligible for existing awards including register of merit, incentive fund, year-end high-point etc. Once an individual has earned 20 points in Training Level, or 20 points in First Level, or has earned 10 points in Second Level or 10 points in Third Level or 10 points in Fourth Level he/she will no longer be eli-gible to participate in that level and earn points in subsequent years, but may continue to compete in that Level until the end of the calendar year in which the afore-mentioned instances occurred.

It’s fi ve-thirty in the morning and I’m getting one more ride in before my national-championship class in the afternoon. It’s my last chance to prepare my horse for the biggest competition

of the year, and I’m not alone. There are 10 or 12 other riders in the ring.

In spite of the darkness, frigid temperature and too little sleep, we’re all schooling and fi ne tuning our horses one last time. We’re trying to make sure that all of the hard work we’ve put in over the last month, year, decade, whatever, culminates in a stel-lar performance. The pressure on the riders is palpable, because everyone feels as if all the work they’ve put in comes down to this one last ride.

The arena is quiet now, with only the sounds of hoof beats and buzzing fl uorescent lights. Within a few hours, though, it will be a cauldron of noise and activity, replete with rolling baby strollers and a loudspeaker squawking until I can’t hear myself think. The riders know this drastic change in environment might unsettle their horses. However, as I watch how intensely we’re working our horses, another thought comes to mind. What often affects horses’ performances even more than changes in environ-ment are changes in their riders.

After all, it’s not just horses that respond differently to chang-es in setting and challenge. Riders think, feel and behave differ-ently at horse shows, too, even to the point of taking on different personalities. Suddenly, a horse can fi nd that the relaxed, confi -dent, patient rider he knew at home is now a tense perfectionist.

In this article, I’m going to share my views on this kind of “last-minute perfectionism” and how it can undermine your horse’s performance.

Perfectionism is Irrational and DebilitatingLet’s start by examining a key question. Is perfectionism a

good thing? To listen to some people, you’d think so. Some say their perfectionism is what drives them to pay attention to detail and produce good work. Others wear it as a badge of honor, as

if their persistent distress over minor imperfections somehow reveals superior character.

What’s refl ected in these attitudes, though, is that a lot of people confuse perfection-ism with dedication to the pursuit of excellence. So let’s dispel that notion right away. In my view, perfectionism is not about maximizing performance (which requires a tolerance for imperfection, especially in equestrian sport) and is seldom driven by a passion for excel-lence. Instead, I see perfection-ism as an inability to tolerate imperfection, which is driven by psychological vulnerabili-ties. I also see it as something that compels you to allocate your attention, effort and emotional reserves in irrational ways.

To begin with, it can pull your attention away from relatively important facets of what you’re doing to less important ones that just happen to be your obsession of the moment (e.g. you work on those perfect button braids so long you run out of time to lunge). In addition, it can pull your attention away from the big picture and bury it in relatively inconsequential details (e.g. you focus so much on keeping your horse’s head in the proper frame that you become oblivious to his mental state, which affects his perfor-mance so much more).

The next question is this. If perfectionism is so distressing and debilitating, why do we tend to fall victim to it so often? Well, it’s because our subconscious minds fi nd it a useful tool to relieve even greater discomforts when we’re challenged psychologically.

Perfectionism& Your Performance

By Lindsey Knight

It doesn’t always pay to be a perfectionist.

Learn how “last-minute perfectionism” can

undermine your horse’s performance.


For example, many perfectionists are driven to it by a subconscious fear of failure. Their perfectionism is rooted in fear of em-barrassment, fear of letting someone down, fear of feeling inadequate (“If I do this per-fectly, that will show I’m not inadequate”) or simply not wanting to feel like they didn’t do their best. I call this mindset defensive per-fectionism, because it’s all about protecting yourself from bad feelings.

You don’t have to be psychologically vulnerable to exhibit perfectionism, however. It’s perfectly natural for any rider, even some-one unaffected by fear of failure, to become a perfectionist when something important is at stake. It can stem from the purest of desires to

do the best possible job. In other words, even the most relaxed, tolerant rider can morph into a perfectionist in the moments leading up to a big class.

Your Horse Isn’t a Perfectionist —

So Don’t Expect Him

to Respond Like OnePerfectionism becomes an even bigger

issue when you consider the impact it can have on your horse.

Let’s state the obvious. Your horse isn’t tossing and turning in his stall all night stress-ing about whether or not the judge is going to like him, or whether other horses are going

If there’s any endeavor on

earth that doesn’t yield itself to

perfectionism, it’s competitive

riding. Just the fact that you

have a living, breathing animal

as your performance partner

makes expecting machine-like

predictability and precision

unfair to both of you.

to think less of him if he performs poorly. He only responds to what he’s experiencing moment to moment. So, if what you’re do-ing makes him feel physically weak, insecure or annoyed, you’re undermining his chances for a good performance. He doesn’t have the capacity to overcome these things through sheer will, positive self-talk or the desire to win a blue ribbon.

If you work him to death to solve something you’re having trouble with, he’ll lose his brilliance or even get tired and sore (hmm, you practiced that collected canter for 10 laps… no won-der your horse has a sore back). If you push him too hard to per-fect things he’s already doing pretty well, he’ll get frustrated and cranky. If you spend the whole day hovering around him, check-ing up on every little thing and pulling him out of his stall over and over again, he won’t be able to relax.

That’s why it’s important to remind yourself that, if there’s any endeavor on earth that doesn’t yield itself to perfectionism, it’s competitive riding. Just the fact that you have a living, breathing animal as your performance partner makes expecting machine-like predictability and precision unfair to both of you. There’s no question that some horses need extensive schooling and work prior to a big class. It’s just that you should adapt your schooling to his needs, not yours, and especially not overwork him just to meet your psychological need for a more perfect ride.

agenda, whether subconsciously or not. Such an agenda often focuses more on meeting your needs than those of your horse.

For example, to make yourself more confi dent about entering the show ring, you might approach your fi nal practice session as a stride-for-stride dress rehearsal. Well, that most likely isn’t what your horse needs, especially if perfection is your goal, and it’s usually not do-able in the practice ring. Worse, it can set your confi dence back big-time if things don’t go well (“This is terrible… this is my last chance to get it right… I’m in trouble”).

Sometimes, I can sense I’m getting caught up in this kind of thing. That’s when I go for a different approach, such as getting into a soft hand gallop and paying attention to my horse’s breathing. Two or three laps later, we’re relaxed. No agenda. No tension. It’s just him and me, feeling like we do at home.

The point is, you need to learn how to rec-ognize your motivational impulses and how they affect your interaction with your horse. You need to train yourself to remain aware of your horse’s needs and how he’s reacting to what you’re do-ing. Part of this is recognizing that competitive riding isn’t just about you and your aspirations, goals and expectations. It’s about helping your horse perform to the best of his ability, and you

have to take his current capabilities and state of mind into consideration.

So question your motives and perceptions when it feels like you’re not interacting well with your horse and perfectionism might be the cause. Ask yourself, “Am I doing this to actually improve his performance or simply to make my-self feel better?” Ask yourself, “Is this a real issue I’m obsessed about or am I just acting on my in-security and self-doubt?” The key is to recognize when you’re focusing more on meeting your psychological needs than improving your horse’s performance.

If you have a lot of nervous energy, work it off in a way that doesn’t drive your horse crazy. If you’re worried about aspects of your own performance, practice them mentally so that you don’t compromise your horse’s performance in the process.

Trust Your TrainingFinally, when I see my riders getting ob-

sessed about riding perfectly just before a class, I try to get them to take a longer view and trust their training. This means adopting a broader perspective based on their entire body of work, not just on what they’re experiencing in their last practices or warm-ups.

and I have had diffi culty with something in the warm-up ring and then ridden ex-ceptionally well in the show ring, or vice-versa. So it doesn’t make sense to conclude that what you experience in that one, fi nal practice session is exactly what you’ll get in the show ring. It also doesn’t make sense to expect perfection from your horse at that time, just because it’s so close to your class.

Here’s my main point. Your goal when you get to a show should be to ride as con-sistently as you can and not become a dif-ferent kind of rider. He needs that sense of continuity in your leadership. He needs to feel that not much has changed. That’s the best way to avoid undermining your horse’s performance at the last moment, and it requires that you not get caught up in “last-minute perfectionism.”

This can be a particularly tough chal-lenge in a horse show practice ring, because it’s usually a hectic environment that makes it virtually impossible to accomplish your goals, never mind ride fl awlessly. So you also need to adapt to the situation as best you can and adjust your expectations ac-cordingly. You need to make good decisions about what you can accomplish and not get

obsessed about what you can’t control.That’s the approach I took during that

pre-dawn practice session at the national championships. By six o’clock, I had my horse relaxed and feeling good. We didn’t practice every little thing we’d have to ac-complish in the show ring. More importantly, we got into a groove, a “fl ow,” in which everything seemed familiar and in balance. Then I put him back in his stall and let him relax for the rest of the morning.

THE 2011

Vermont Summer [email protected] (802) 496-9667Show grounds located in East Dorset, VT


Paul Newman said, “If you’re playing a poker game and you look around the table and can’t tell who the sucker is, it’s you.”

This, my friends, is also true of showing horses. Or, actu-ally, it’s more like this: “If you’re showing horses, no need to look around the stable for the sucker; it’s always going to be you.”

I was reminded of this when I pulled up to the show grounds recently. Propped in front of the pristine white signboard with green lettering that sedately pointed the way to the show arena was a hand lettered sign that said: Comedy Show.

Showing horses is a comical business, indeed. The only thing we can do is laugh at ourselves for the crazy things we do to keep up our addiction – er, hobby. Folks new to the show world ask things like, “My kid just started showing. How can I stop the fi nancial bleeding?”

The rest of us fall over laughing. Because of course you can’t show horses and “stop the bleeding.” What you can do is learn to live without money, because your horses have fi rst call on every available dollar.

I was one of those folks once, who thought I could “manage” my showing experience, budget, goals and so forth. After many years, I learned that there is a sublime set of natural laws at work, otherwise known as The Rules of the Horse Show. Commit these to memory, and you’ll be fi ne.

Rule #1: Outwit The WeatherEveryone knows that predicting the weather is an uncertain sci-

ence. But if you have a horse show coming up, you can know with 100% certainty what the weather will be that weekend: extreme. If it’s been hot, it will turn cold. If it’s been cold, it will turn sub-arctic, unless you packed for cold, and then it will be 115˚ in the shade. If it’s been dry, the monsoons will begin; if you live in a tropical zone, it will snow. The only option is to pack for all weather extremes. Do not even bother to check the weather forecasts.

For every show you go to, even if it’s close to your house, pack like Lewis and Clark. Put a full set of hot weather clothes in your car or suitcase, and a full set of Arctic Circle gear. Bring shorts, fl eece-lined jackets, sandals and mudboots. Same for your horses. Pack their blankets, coolers, sheets and hoodies, even if you’re going to the Gulf Coast in August. You never know. All you know for sure is the weather’s going to be a problem.

Rule #2: Endure The FoodPerhaps somewhere, in some upper realm of horse showing that

I haven’t yet attained, the food choices at the horse show are abun-dant, healthy and cheap. But at the shows I go to, the staple diet is candy and sodas supplemented by concession-stand food. Our hors-es eat ten times healthier than we do. They drink more water, too.

I don’t know what it is that compels us at a horse show to con-sume candy, sodas, and fl at greasy hamburgers or warm-ish hotdogs in mushy buns. You might even bring healthy food with you; designer water full of electrolytes, organic granola, farm fresh veggies. But the

minute you unpack your things and settle in on the shedrow, you’re going to head for the staples: candy, sodas and concession food.

But wait, I’ve neglected a major beverage in the list above: cof-fee. I’ve often wondered why the big name coffee chains have not discovered how lucrative the horse show circuit would be. Between the 4:00 a.m. schooling sessions and the midnight stall checks, the horse arena should be at least as lucrative as the airports.

Oh, yeah, there’s one more item you’ll fi nd yourself eating regu-larly at the horse shows: Tums.

Rule #3: Suffer The AccommodationsNow, I have not had the pleasure of driving my own giant land

barge into the show grounds to live in for several days, but from the luxury homes-on-wheels I’ve visited, this is the way to go. Except when the water freezes, or a/c goes out, the price of gas goes to $20/gallon, the shower fl oods, or the bugs/wild critters/neighbors become a nuisance.

Instead, many of us go the hotel route. But, similar to the weath-er, expect the hotel to be a pain in the hindquarters. It’s usually too far to the show or in a strange part of town; the room is guaranteed to be too noisy, too light, too cold or warm. If you have kids staying with you, the hotel will be twice as uncomfortable, because either the accommodations are going to be unacceptable to the children, or the children are going to be unacceptable to you.

No one is going to get a good night’s sleep – thus, the need for coffee. So my advice is, the only thing you should look for in a hotel is a good free breakfast including gallons of hot, fresh coffee. At least you’ll get one meal that isn’t from the concession stand.

Rule #4: Pamper the HorsesThis is the most important rule of all. The horses must be

pampered. If this means going without shoes, clothes, health supple-ments, hair care or sleep so your horse can have the same, so be it. No matter how tired, sore, hungry, and grumpy you are, no effort can be spared to assure that your horse is rested, sound, well fed and happy. Yes, of course he has to work hard, but he is the rock star of the show and you are the road crew. The glory is his; the grind is yours. And he will thank you for it if you do your job well. When you see empty water and grain buckets to be fi lled and wet spots and manure piles to pick out of his stall, you will rejoice, for these signify his gratitude to you for a job well done – he’s eating, drinking, and excreting, so you’re ecstatic!

Horse show enthusiasts, the sooner you submit to these Rules of The Horse Show, the happier you – and more importantly, your horse – will be. See you at the in-gate!

COVER STORY

Isabell Werth and the Isabell Saddle, exclusive to Bates and Wintec Saddles, is a true success story.

The NEW Isabell Saddle is born from one of the industry’s most unique, enduring and successful equestrian partnerships in product development. It’s a refreshing story in today’s commer-cial world, as to how the world’s most successful dressage rider came to work with the world leaders (Bates Australia) in saddle innovation to create the biggest selling dressage saddle of all time – The Isabell Saddle.

It would surprise many that this partnership in saddle de-velopment spans over two decades, in fact Isabell was working alongside Wintec Saddles before her international dressage ca-reer had even really begun. Likewise for Wintec, she has been a loyal advocate and a constructive critic along their journey from launch in 1986 right through to where they are now, the big-gest volume manufacturer of saddles under the one brand in the world. Isabell describes it as her “longest, oldest and most favor-ite partnership since becoming an international rider.”

Isabell’s fi rst introduction to Wintec Saddles was through her trainer, Dr. Schulten Baumer, who was intrigued by the con-cept of an exceptionally lightweight hi-tech, synthetic saddle. Their feedback on the wear of the saddles became instrumental in the design of the next generation of Wintec saddles. This was how, from an early age, Isabell actively participated in the test-ing and development of Wintec saddles. Her drive for perfec-tion and her unique ability to communicate the needs of the rider and the horse, helped build a solid relationship with the research and development team. Together they went on to break new ground in dressage saddle design with the Isabell Saddle, renowned to be truly revolutionary and largely responsible for the deep seat dressage style that has become the norm among dressage competitors in the world today.

Ron Bates is the managing director of the parent company behind Bates and Wintec Saddles. Of their partnership with Isabell Ron says, “We are very privileged to work alongside a rider of Isabell’s caliber, her unsurpassed achievements in the world dressage arena are testament to her total dedication to perfection in all she does. Her approach to saddle design is no

different and has ensured her saddle is truly revolutionary, tak-ing the effort out of sitting in the correct position and seating the rider even closer to the horse for precise communication.” Her saddle has undoubtedly been one of the most successful in the world and now the NEW Isabell Saddle is set to revolutionize dressage performance once again.

Isabell believes that the saddle plays a vital role in her dres-sage. “My saddle is my offi ce, and I sit in it from six to seven hours a day.” She understands rider comfort is paramount for meeting the high demands of serious dressage training and com-petition. Isabell describes the “perfect dressage seat” as one that gives the rider the feeling of sitting “in” the saddle and not “on” the saddle. It must also offer an exceptionally close and uninter-rupted feel of the horse and aid the rider to effortlessly maintain a balanced, central position for effective execution of aids. Likewise, Isabell believes her saddle plays an important role in effectively advancing her horses through their training levels and sustaining peak condition for competing at the highest level. “I must have a saddle that fi ts both horse and rider equally, which is why I am totally committed to Wintec and Bates saddles. Due to their innovative systems, they have the ultimate fl exibility to be changed to fi t any horse shape even as they develop with their training.” The CAIR® Cushion System is widely accepted as the ultimate performance panel available in saddles and together with the EASY-CHANGE™ Gullet System ensures the fi t and comfort of all Isabell’s horses. “For my horses, I choose to only ride in saddles with CAIR®, as my horses have demonstrated to me the immense performance benefi ts it offers them.

COVER STORY

my horses are 100% comfortable enables us to realize our full potential.” It is testament to the fi tting systems in Bates and Wintec that the one saddle can be adapted for a perfect fi t on all the horses in her stable, despite their varied conformations.

The 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games was the per-fect platform for the offi cial launch of the NEW Isabell Saddle. The much anticipated saddle launch proved a major attraction to a trade village that boasted exhibitors from all around the world. Hundreds of lucky visitors to the trade village made the most of being among the fi rst to see her new saddle and the once in a lifetime opportunity to meet Isabell Werth. Delighted to meet her fans and talk about her new saddle launch, Isabell did not disappoint, personalizing autographs and having her photo taken with every last visitor that had queued up to meet her.

With unprecedented sales at launch, the NEW Isabell Saddle was a sell-out suc-cess at WEG. Customers were impressed with the new seat and closer con-tact offered by the new dressage saddle and in particular the major advancements in the fi t and comfort of the horse. Having the unique choice of being available in the fi nest European leather, as the Bates Isabell for the ultimate in prestige and luxu-ry, or the Wintec Isabell, with its life-style advantages of being lightweight, easy-care and weatherproof, ensured the saddle was a hit with customers, whatever their budget.

Isabell says, “Riders can trust in the performance of my saddle, it is the result of signifi cant research and development delivering the ultimate dressage seat for the rider and unparalleled performance for the horse. I am confi dent in the competitive advantage it will offer you and that you will see a marked improvement in your performance as a result.”

In talking about the saddle development process Ron Bates says, “Riders at all levels are becoming more aware of

the importance of their saddle, its fi t and the impact these have not only on their horse’s wellbeing but also subsequent perfor-mance, and are therefore becoming more discerning on what they rightly demand from their saddle.” He believes the key to success of Bates and Wintec saddles has been in identifying the

changing needs of horses and riders and addressing these with truly innovative solu-tions that work. He also attributes their suc-cess to thorough research, employing every means available in evaluating the saddles, enlisting the services of experts in the fi elds of physics, veterinary care and saddle fi tting to ensure confi dence. “We will continue to develop products that put the welfare of the horse, as primary importance. We can assure you that we will continue to leave no stone unturned in setting industry bench-marks in saddle design with innovations that signifi cantly improve both horse and rider performance. Our saddle ranges are state of the art and lead the fi eld in technology pro-viding a signifi cant performance advantage for riders at all levels at unrivalled value for money.” It is these principles that led Isabell to us in the fi rst place and what we have built upon to achieve the success we now share.

Isabell Werth has won six Olympic gold medals, seven medals at World Championships, 14 medals at European Championships and has held the title of German Champion eight times, rightfully earning the title “Dressage Queen” from her peers within the international dressage community. People would be excused from being somewhat surprised to hear Isabell say, “My saddle is one of the proudest achievements of my dressage career,” that is until they understand the depth of her in-volvement in its development.
