Cara Broderick and Duval Win World Equestrian Brands Tack Matters Award at Wellington Classic Dressage Holiday Show

Wellington, FL (December 21, 2012) – World Equestrian Brands (WEB) was proud to present a Vespucci bridle to Cara Broderick and her horse, Duval, as a part of the Tack Matters Award. Broderick and Duval were selected to win due to their outstanding presentation and turn out during the Wellington Classic Dressage Holiday Show. “I thought Cara’s ride was fabulous,” said trainer Heidi Degele, “This was her very first time doing 3rd Level on her horse who she’s training herself with my help.” Broderick’s horse Duval is a 9-year-old Oldenberg by Dr. Doolittle, and she explains that his stable name is Mr. Wonderful because of his patience. “I only went back into riding and took up dressage three years ago,” she explains. “Heidi has done a wonderful job bringing us both on because before that, I was a hunter/jumper with a hunter/jumper seat that she has worked extremely hard to get rid of!”

Broderick and Duval live in England and fly into Florida every winter to train with Degele for the season. She explains that her English equestrian background supports the WEB emphasis that tacks matters. “I was trained as a young girl that in order to be respectful to the judges you only went into the ring if you were spotlessly clean and your horse was beautifully turned out. I still know that this is very important today.” Her trainer, Degele agrees. “It is extremely important to be well turned out at the horse show,” she advises, “Your overall appearance of how you present your horse is also representing how you train your horse and how you take care of your horse at home. The presentation is everything.”

Robin Moore of World Equestrian Brands explains that they strongly support this important part of equestrian sport. “We are dedicated to the equine industry and are constantly taking steps to be involved in the industry’s many facets,” she explains. WEB is the US distributor of Amerigo, Amerigo Vega, EA Mattes, Vespucci and Equilibrium products, and therefore, horses and riders are assured of the highest quality products available. Moore continues, “As riders ourselves, we are continually reaching out to other riders, competitors, organizers, and retail stores to listen to their needs and the problems they are trying to solve with their equipment.”

The high performance saddles and strap goods from Amerigo are unrivaled worldwide. Designed by Peter Menet, Amerigo saddles are handcrafted, and are designed using a scientific approach by integrating the biomechanics of horse and rider to improve comfort and performance. Understanding the dynamics of motion and what the horse’s body needs to be capable of at the top levels of all disciples is Amerigo’s strength. All Amerigo saddles are fit using a unique measuring system to ensure the proper fit for both horse and rider. Amerigo’s goal is to provide comfort for the horse and rider and to enable them to be balanced and free to perform. Amerigo also is endorsed by a number of champions, including Olympic eventers Allison Springer, Kim Severson, and Buck Davidson, showjumping Olympic Gold Medalist Steve Guerdat, Edwina Alexander, Aaron Vale and Kim Prince, and dressage riders Ali Brock, Gold Medalist Carl Hester, Kyra Kyrklund, and Pierre St. Jacques.
