In this article, we are going to introduce one of the talented bareback jumpers in the world. She is not really old, however, she has an experience of a lifetime with her horse. Her name is Alycia Burton and we would like you all to take a quick look into her life through her words and this video.
“People see me on Goldrush and think I have a ‘Rich and Famous’ lifestyle…What they don’t realize is I am just a normal everyday Country girl who grew up in the back blocks of New Zealand.
I’m here to show others that despite the odds- you don’t need money to do well in the horse world and to look professional- you just need hard work and dedication. I take horses that no one else wants to ride- or with severe behavior issues and train them. The results speak for themselves.
To the ‘few hundred odd’ Thoroughbreds off the track and the countless other horses who had been misunderstood in life that I was able to work with… Thank you for forgiving and teaching me a thing or two.” I just have to say that she is absolutely incredible and I fully enjoyed watching this video. Way to go, girl!
