Glamorous 25 year old Italian eventer,
Vittoria Panizzon, finished 16th at the Hong Kong Olympics with her plucky, pony-like Rock Model (Bug to his friends!). Showing their star quality again at Express Eventing, the pair finished 5th of only six completions. Being on the stressy side, Vittoria took Bug to Hartpury the day before to do three dressage tests (much to his disgust) to wear him out a little! On the day, he performed a lovely test (not fully appreciated by the judges!) and jumped like a cat, though a little over-zealous in the first section, rolling some poles. Read Vittoria's blog and see her video diary on Horse Hero for the full story!
