World Challenge is basically a competition for young riders from developing nations. 7th place is a decent result, but of course not ground-breaking in the grand scheme of things.

A couple of questions from ignorant me:

 

1) In which discipline she competes?

2) Is she a decent addition to our national roster?

She competes in jumping. She made a couple of Spanish teams over the years (including 2014 WEG), so she probably stands an outside chance of being selected next year.

 

I believe she married a Mexican rider recently.
