Amanda also concentrates her efforts on bringing on junior drivers who compete throughout the season at both indoor and club events. The adults are learning that they need to look out for the juniors who are catching up on them fast! However, Amanda is still a force to be reckoned with - winning the title of Scottish Indoor Champion 2004; 2005; 2006; 2008 with her stunt pair Charlie and Dini, both rescued ponies more used to galloping around show arenas than doing indoor dressage! They have also propelled her to National Indoor Pairs Champion in 2005 and 2007. Not bad for a pair of rescued ponies from appalling backgrounds!
