YOUR STORY

EMMA WALES-SMITH AND SILVER

“Silver was my first pony and I’ve had him for about 7 years now. He means a lot to me because he taught me horsemanship and how you have to have a bond with your horse.”

“He’s a really special boy to me. My best moment with Silver would be when he jumped me around my first 1m class at a small show in Harare when I was 10 years old. He ended up winning the class in a really speedy jump-off. He gives so much confidence to his rider. He really is amazing.”
