Hannah Sue Burnett at Poplar Place

Hannah Sue has made the transition this year from being ensconced in the O’Connor Event Team to striking out on her own in the Eventing world, although she definitely hasn’t cut the ties completely. With a couple of shiny new sponsors and a successful early Spring season under her belt, I caught up with her briefly at Poplar in the rare moment of quiet between prepping herself and her horses, and riding dressage, 

Shortly after we spoke she hopped on her last horse for the day and was down in the dressage warm-up, under the watchful eye of none other than David O’Connor – they have an easy rapport, a quiet understanding and Woodbury now lies in 5th place overnight after the dressage phase. As I watched the dressage warm-up I observed David, Leslie Law and Peter Gray all helping their various riders and all three were to a fault soft-spoken and gave their advice sparingly. The lady a little further down, screaming constant instructions – I don’t know who she was, but apparently a couple of people on twitter do!

Many thanks to Hannah Sue for stopping to chat, and wishing her continued success this season. Thank you for visiting Eventing Nation, and Go Eventing.
