She has taken the ride on Clifton Bee Gee since mid-2008, after the horse won the inaugural Young Event Horse Championship at Puhunui in March 2008.
Clifton Bee Gee was bred by Olympic medallist Greg Best and his wife Kim and is by BT, a stallion Greg stood in New Zealand for a few select mares for two years before it returned to the US. BT is out of a full sister to his Olympic show jumping silver medallist Gem Twist. BT is by the Jalisco B sire Ollisco. BT, a Selle Francais stallion, has some of the most potent jumping blood in the sport.It is therefore perhaps not surprising that because Christine found Clifton Bee Gee so talented as a dressage horse that we moved the focus from being an all-round eventer to him being a dressage specialist.
