After kicking off the 2010 season with a collection of fantastic results, East Sussex event rider Sam Penn, has secured herself another sponsor in the form of online feed merchants, For Animals.

Based in West Sussex, For Animals spotted Sam after several recent competitive accolades, including wins across the levels from BE90 up to Intermediate. And now, with her recent win at Brigstock in the 5 Year Old class with Tickeridge – securing her a place in the Lycetts British Eventing Young Horse finals in the autumn, having taken the title of the 4 Year Old Class on him in 2009 – it seems their investment is already paying off.

For Animals have offered Sam financial backing in the shape of a training bursary in order for her to continue improving and establishing herself as a professional rider with List One Dressage Judge Mary Anne Horn and Brazilian Event team coach, Nick Turner.
