Melissa Buckland:
"I have found Melissa to be a quiet but confident
rider. She has been riding my 16.1hh 8 year old Warmblood eventer, Vena.
Vena is strong and relies upon the confidence of her rider, however if she
has this, goes really well. Melissa has brought the best out of Vena in the last
few months, and Vena has come to trust and perform for Melissa. This is purely
due to her working on their partnership and developing a reciprocated trust.
Melissa is competent schooling, hacking and seems to have a good knowledge
of warm up/warm down procedures with the horse. She rode very well at XC
schooling at Toomer Farm XC, Henstridge, Somerset. She and Vena jumped
everything up to 3'3 with good technique and style.
I can recommend
Melissa as a quiet, safe, caring, confident and compassionate young rider."
