BITTERWELL SPIRIT & JILL KENT
EnduranceGB Advanced Rider & Horse Combination
Bitterwell Spirit (El Crysto – Shadeeka) is a 92% Pure Bred Crabbet gelding was born on 13th June 1994.
In 2007 Spirit competed at FEI international level, and now in 2008 we have been selected for the EnduranceGB British Senior Development Team to compete in FEI 2* 120km ride at Sangatte, near Calais, France in April. Later in the year we are planning to compete in a number of FEI rides both at home and abroad.
We are looking for sponsors to help us achieve our aim of completing a 160km FEI ride this season, and qualifying for the Senior British Team. If you are interested in an association with this amazing and very consistent horse I would be very pleased to talk to you.
Bitterwell Spirit was EnduranceGB Supreme National Champion 2006
2006 really saw the results of my time and patience with this very talented horse. – see a résumé of our results
