Who says that a retired barrel racer can’t earn a dressage championship? Not us! That’s exactly what Hannah Goodin, a 21 year old Quarter Horse, did with Erica Cardey at the 2012 Northern California Regional Adult Amateur Competition (RAAC). Under the guidance of Cynthia Bell, Erica successfully retrained Hannah in dressage. Their first season out Erica and Hannah mastered “Intro Level” and dominated at RAAC. The pair also rode their first Training Level test at that show and earned a whopping 69%. Unfortunately Hannah’s dressage career was cut short due to colic. Silver Bell Barn and Erica had to say goodbye to Hannah in April of 2013. Hannah is sorely missed!
