Brentina

I just learned that Debbie McDonald's wonderful team mare, Brentina, is recovering from colic surgery. Brentina is one of the legends of American dressage, a reminder to us all about how good training and a great partnership makes everything possible. I don't know Debbie well at all, but I know that she loves the mare with every fiber of her being. My thoughts are with them both today, and I wish for "Mama" a complete recovery and a quick return to her most richly deserved retirement.
