Dressage

Emily Smith

Hi my name is Emily Smith

I am a USDF Bronze, Silver and Gold medalist. I am an owner and trainer at Smith Dressage. My horse’s name is Dublin and I have been with him since he was 7. We had 3 very successful years at the Young Riders, including two trips to the North American Youth Championships, one trip to the USEF Festival of Champions, and 2 times long listed for the Young Rider European Tour. This summer I debuted Dublin at Grand Prix and we are now competing in the U25 Grand Prix.

Rhiannon Williams

Rhiannon Williams started riding when she was only two years old. By the age of nine, she was competing in G.D.C.T.A. dressage shows on her two Arabian ponies called Little Bit and Lord Grey Stoke. Over the years she has participated in many Hunter, Jumper, C.T. & dressage shows. Rhiannon has also enjoyed many Pony Club events, such as mounted games, clinics and cross country events. Rhiannon has been a member of Hilltoppers Pony Club since 2010.

In 2016 Rhiannon and her 12.2” jumper pony, Simba’s Pride were Silverthorne’s Intro Jumper Champion. They also brought home Junior High Point rider and High Point pony. That same year Rhiannon and her OTTB, Now Daddy’s Broke were the AAHJA Short Stirrup champion. In 2017 Rhiannon and Now Daddy’s Broke (aka Ossi) were the Low Hunter TIP division champions at HJ Fox, they were also the overall winning OTTB of 2017 HJ Fox TIP series.

Rhiannon and Ossi love a challenge. In 2018 they hope to do well in GDCTA’s dressage and C.T shows. They will continue to compete in the TIP divisions at HJ Fox. But, their new goal for 2018 is to qualify to attend the TIP Championships in Kentucky in September.

Rhiannon is excited to represent Southern Equestrian.
