I am honored to recommend Victoria Zahorik for placement on a collegiate equestrian team. I have worked with Victoria for over seven years, and in that time, I have been nothing but impressed with her attitude and ability.
Victoria has worked with green horses throughout her junior career, and although she has faced numerous challenges, these experiences show in her skill and patience in the saddle. When I need a student to ride horses in the barn, she is at the top of my list; whether I ask her to take a five-year-old pony over its first jumps or flat a junior jumper, she accomplishes the task with impressive proficiency and enthusiasm. Victoria can also always be relied upon to take top-notch care of any horse in her charge, which is why most of her barn mates seek Victoria out to ride their own horses when they are away.
Of all the students I have taught, Victoria stands out as a particularly considerate competitor. She is happy to cheer her friends’ successes, even when facing her own difficulties, and is a likewise gracious winner.
It is without reservation that I recommend Victoria for placement on a college-level equestrian team. With her unique combination of talent, dedication, and exemplary sportsmanship, she would be an asset to any program, just as she has been an asset to my stable.
