Yvonne Losos de Muņiz Makes Clean Sweep of Wellington Dressage Classic - Page 3

From August 1-17, Losos de Muņiz's hometown of Santo Domingo will play host to the 2003 Pan American Games. Losos de Muņiz's success in Florida, competing against many of the same horse-rider combinations she will face at the 2003 Pan American Games, bodes well for her future success. The Dominican Republic has never before won a medal in Pan American Games equestrian competition.

Losos de Muņiz's exciting wins in at the CDI*** Zada WEF Dressage Classic comes hot on the heels of her success at the Florida Dressage Classic, held February 13-16, where she won both the Prix St. Georges (70.75%) and Intermediare I (69.00%) competitions and placed second in the Intermediare Freestyle (71.50%). At the Wellington Dressage competition, held January 30-February 2, Losos de Muņiz placed second from a field of 23 starters in the Prix St. Georges (68.38%), won the Intermediare I (67.25%), and finished runner-up in the Intermediare Freestyle (71.88%).

"I have the most amazing support group and I couldn't do it without them, they make my life a lot easier," says Losos de Muņiz, 35, who operates the dressage and show jumping facility, Las Marismas, with her husband, Eduardo Muņiz. "My students and staff are so supportive, and my number one fan, my husband, is so encouraging. It is not an individual effort - without them, I wouldn't be here. Everything is falling into place, and all the hard work we put into it as a team is paying off."
