Shramm-o in top form for bareback high jump at Plantation




Dominick Schramm, the Thunder from Down Under is taking the festivities at Plantation Horse Trials very seriously this year. At the moment I'd say he is one of the favorites for the bareback high jump which will be performed on Sunday, between the 2-star and 3-star show jumping. He took some training on Caitlin Silliman’s horse Looks Like Fernhill; he jumped the Irish gelding easily at about 5’4” and I believe he’s in good shape coming in to challenge the defending champion Jennie Brannigan. Ladies, take note: there is some rumor of Dominick jumping shirtless with an Aussie flag as a cape if it comes down to a record-breaking attempt.

On a more serious note, all the stars are aligning for a beautiful event with perfect weather and footing for cross-country day at Plantation Field this weekend.
