About a year ago, Claire Salter of Marlborough, England thought she may never be able to walk again, let alone spend time in the saddle. During a trip to Texas to ride her horses, the 52 year-old started to not feel well. "I could hardly bear the feel of shoes, let alone be able to put on riding boots, and the feeling of walking anywhere was akin to walking on hot coals," Salter recalled. |

Holt Pope recently returned from a trip of a
lifetime to Italy where she experienced the
culture, art, architecture, and gorgeous scenery.
Of course, her trip was not complete until she
experienced a horse show in the Brescia provence
of Italy. Along side her husband, trainer Shane
Pope, Holt saw first hand how similar, and
different, it is to show horses in Europe.

'We are so overwhelmed with how people have
reached out to us," Larry Spratto expressed to
GoHorseShow. "We are at a loss of words. You hear
so many negative things online about horse people,
and horse showing, but it can't compare to all the
positive great horse people that make up the horse
show family."
