Lisette Milner and Eminence

First International Show, and First Grand Prix

For Lisette Milner, passing on the 2004 Dressage in Florida winter season, was not that difficult a decision, even though she has added layers of clothing to her wardrobe. The hard work is paying off. After their first International CDI in Oldenburg, which was also their first Grand Prix, Milner’s youngest horse Eminence scored an impressive 65.465%.

Stabled at Gëstut Höftehof, in Meppen, Germany, Milner has a new family of friends and supporters. “They gave everyone at the stables time off,” said Lisette, “so they were all there to watch and support. Ernst Hoyos was a great support as well at the show, as was Gerd Knoop (the owner of Gëstut Höftehof) who took us there.”
