BTB: Sinead Halpin makes her dream come true

Sinead Halpin makes her dream come true Posted: 02 May 2011 08:36 AM PDT She certainly delivered the goods. What a story! From Gladstone NJ, Sinead has worked with the O'Connors and recently spent time with William Fox-Pitt in the UK. WFP doesn't sound like the nurturing type (read here) but she must have gotten soemthin' out of it ;-). Just to add to the discussion on "what happened" Saturday (was it really a disaster?), I sat next to an adanced rider on the plane last night. She felt that the course was very fair but that it demanded accuracy that some riders didn't produce. I mentioned how tired many of the horses looked, and she said that reports were that  the footing was not great and it took a lot out of the horses and pulled a lot of shoes ( Kim Severson and Hamisch Cargill's mounts lost both fronts).  So my friend's comment about the course being a disaster may still hold true -- but perhaps it was a natural disaster :-).
