I’m off in a few weeks to fulfil a lifelong dream to represent Australia at some of the biggest eventing competitions in the UK and Europe.
As you may know, I am long-listed for Paris 2024 Olympics on my wonderful off-the track thoroughbred, Humble Glory. In order to gain international experience and give ourselves a chance in selection both now and in the future, we are heading to the United Kingdom for 5 months, leaving mid-April.
To maximise this once in a lifetime experience, I have decided to take my second horse, Seattle Park, who is showing enormous potential for the future.
Over the 5 months, I plan to represent Australia at Nations Cup Events, with our campaign ending at either Paris Olympics, or the 5* at Burghley Horse Trials.
I will be travelling with these beautiful horses, my husband Andy and my 5 month old baby, Oliver. We are looking forward to the adventure of a lifetime.
I’d like to share my plans and dreams with you on April 10th, 7pm with a zoom meeting. I am also asking if any of you would be interested in sponsoring me, every $ will help. We are creating a Sporting Donation page for those who wish to
sponsor me at – Sophia Hill campaign to Paris and Beyond
Those who do sponsor me will get private videos after each major event with a unique insight into my experience and what I’m learning.
As you can imagine it is an incredibly expensive venture (travel, horse feed, stabling, truck hire, and the endless list of costs associated with competing internationally, as well as leaving our businesses for so long.)
I would be very grateful for any support you may be able to offer me and help be part
of this exciting journey.
