Dressage in the Rockies Profile: Grant Schneidman

Grant and Sharon Schneidman base their Westmanton Stables out of High Prairie Farms Equestrian Center in Parker, Colorado, so they and their horses were right at home for the annual Dressage in the Rockies show.

“My greatest weakness as a rider, perhaps, is that some people have more natural talent than I have, but I can ride any type of horse. My strongest point is persistence,” Grant laughed.
