As far as I can see you need money to compete at the bottom
So very very true!

I believe Mary King earnt her way to the top as have several others.
This may have been easier in the past to work up from nothing with nothing but now adays I think it is even more about the money
The problem is money AND time. If you haven't got a lot of money, you need to earn it and to earn it, you have to put in the kind of hours that mean that you haven't got time to excel (if we're talking top level here).
My old YO and event rider sold her best horse just before the Olympics (she was long listed) as she was offered so much money for him it enabled her to buy a farm!
Shame she has never had such a good horse since.
But she did get a farm! And that won't tragically break its leg in a freak accident in the field!!
yhh u do need money to get 2 the top ... but if u lovee this sport.. somehow u will find the money to get to places and yhh it may take time and hard work but its not impossible to do !!! all u need is to be hard working and a very good rider
u dont have to have an expensive horse if ur a talented rider and u put the work in aslong as that horses has the heart and the abilty..... u can do it !! and tbh i find that the riders who dont have expensive horses are alot better riders then those who do !
yhhh i dont have money and i dont have an expensive horse but i get the best out of what i get given and some how ill get to the top even if i get there at the age of 60 at least i can say ive done it !!
DREAMS CAN COMEE TRUE <3
bless u and thanks very much means alot !!!What a lovely post. I wish you well Kaya and hope your dreams do come true.
Money goes a long way but there exceptions to every rule. I believe Mary King eearnt her way to the top as have several others.
