Dana and FE Mississippi (Cassini II – Liastra, by Legaat), a 12-year-old German mare otherwise known as “Miss Perfect”, have been based in the UK this year, competing at the likes of Millstreet CCI4*-L in June and the Hartpury International CCI4*-S this month. This pair also represented Canada at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru, though their weekend came to an early end following cross country.
Team Canada will be flying out in the coming days to their base camp not far from the World Championships venue. Please join us in congratulating Dana and FE Mississippi on their call up!
