‘I don’t think I’ll ever ride another horse like her’ — Scott Brash retires outstanding mare

Scott Brash has decided to retire his great mare Ursula XII.

The Scotsman made the announcement on today (Sunday 9 December) after he and the 17-year-old Scottish Sport Horse (Ahorn x Papageno) finished sixth in the prestigious Rolex Grand Prix at the CHI Geneva, Switzerland.

“I think winning the CP International, presented by Rolex, at the CSIO Spruce Meadows Masters in 2016 has to be my favourite moment with her,” said Scott. “I don’t think I will ever ride a horse again that can jump round such a big course as easily as Ursula can. She gave me an unbelievable feeling around that course and I am really going to miss that.”
