Ricky MacMillan and Crisp Two
Australian ladies were able to distinguish themselves
from a moderate pack of Aussie Grand Prix Riders and
qualify for the World Cup Final up above in
's Hertogenbosch, also known as Den Bosch, Holland.
Ricky MacMillan, a dentist by profession, had already
been to Europe to compete the year before, but it
wasn't until the 1999/2000 World Cup Qualfying
season that she started to make headlines. Producing
high sixty percentage scores, MacMillan easily qualified
for the final with her Hanoverian Crisp (by Consul x
Aktuell). In the short Grand Prix MacMillan rode a 64.54%
test and placed 9th.
Rosamund Ryan and Exellent The
second Australian competitor in the Final was Rosamund
Ryan and Exellent. On her way to and in The Netherlands
Ryan received the constant support of Horsemagazine
editor Chris Hector and its subscribers. She saddled
Exellent, a thoroughbred gelding by Saros xx but, although
a star in her own country, in Europe she got faced with
the high routine top combinations who pushed her back
to a 14th position of 61.12% in the short Grand Prix.
Still a lovely performance for a newcomer on the scene.
