Yvonne Losos de Muņiz Makes Clean Sweep of Wellington Dressage Classic

Dominican Republic dressage rider Yvonne Losos de Muņiz made a clean sweep of the FEI Intermediare division at the CDI*** Zada WEF Dressage Classic in Wellington, Florida.

Held March 13-16, 2003, at the Palm Beach Polo Equestrian Club during the Winter Equestrian Festival, Dominican Republic citizen Losos de Muņiz won all three competitions at the Intermediare level - the Prix St. Georges, Intermediare I and Intermediare Freestyle. Following her Prix St. Georges victory, Losos de Muņiz was the only rider to break 70% against an impressive international starting field of 29 entries in Saturday's $1,000 Intermediare I competition. Her remarkable score of 70.25% was earned for a performance that featured strong lateral movements in both the trot and canter work with her partner, Inatana Las Marismas, a 13-year-old bay Dutch Warmblood mare by Latano that she has been riding since January of 2002.

"The mare was super and everything just fell into place so it goes to show that our program is working," said Losos de Muņiz who is coached by well-known Dutch trainer, Diederik Wigmans. "Both myself and my coach are always looking for perfection and are never satisfied, and this was the first time he's actually complimented me when I came out of the ring, telling me I did a super job. We are both so critical that we are never, ever happy!"

Inatana Las Marismas was purchased from Dutch Jeanette Haazen in 2001, who competed the bay mare internationally at Intermediaire I level.
