talented. He was competing Advanced as a

arrival in America meant we were unable to
compete. Joe is enjoying retirement at his
owners property in Berry, NSW. |

purchased for just a few hundred dollars and he

Bobby Dazzler-Bobby was bred and
owned by Margaret Ledner and was part of my team
from 2002 to 2009. He had all the talent
in the world and had many wins on his way
through the grades. Including winning
Adelaide CCI2* in 2006,
in the same year he won Camden, Sydney and
Canberra two star classes.
In 2007 he placed 2nd in the 3* at Worrigee and
6th in the 3* World Cup qualifier at Werribee.
Bobby started 2009 is a
successful manner placing 2nd in the Scone
CNC3*.
Bobby
was cursed with a variety of injuries that
prevented him reaching his full potential.
Every time he was performing well something
would happen and he would need time off.
Mid 2009
it was decided that Bobby would go to Margaret's
daughter Penny and compete at the lower levels.
