Just been watching the interview with her here http://www.horsehero.com/1179/pro-interviews/33784 & what an amazing story! I knew about her success competing the two full brothers at Badminton but not about her comeback from injury. She comes across as a really nice lady, tempted to make a trip over the bridge for some lessons

i meet louise at westwilts, i had my 2 stabled next to her and i didn't realise who i was talkin too whilst plating up my horse!!! until she explained she had produced youngsters upto 4* level. Opps, i then checked the door tag!!!
she is lovely though, i haven't had lessons but would guess she is good and she is not a dragon which i think is always a good start!!!
 
Great stuff - I remember reading about Louise's accident some years ago in Eventing magazine . I get a bit cross when I read about people being critical of her riding style , but I suppose they don't realise how bad her accident was .

A few years ago , she had a lovely coloured horse called Loubar Showman - any idea what happened to him ?
 
eventerlad15, that's a fairly strong thing to say?

I don't know her all that well, but walked the course with her at Blenheim, and she was nothing but friendly and helpfull!!
 
oh shes an absolute gem.
i see her all winter BSJA-ing.
my grans horse irish rose (bay mare) that i ride came from her.
she always says hello when she sees me at events and enquires how im getting on etc.
always is positve and similey.
very much like rosie thomas, they are both lovelly

she has to be one of the nicest people on the circut I have just watched a bit of her video . I met her on the HORSE FIRST stand at Badminton and she was really friendly and helpful with advice for my horse. A future winner.
