Tanisha Ryan Makes her Mark in the Under 25 Division at 2023 CDI Sydney

Australian Tanisha Ryan made her mark in the Under 25 division at the 2023 CDI Sydney on 25 - 27 April 2023, recording a double victory and one second place aboard Prequel. After a six-year career at international Young Riders' level, the 22-year old made a successful jump into the U25 Grand Prix division.

The 22-year old Ryan has partnered with New Zealand bred Prequel to make her Grand Prix dreams come true.

Building a Career as a Young Rider

Ryan's international show career kicked off in 2017 when she was 16. Her career starting horse was Quizzical, a now 16-year old Australian warmblood (by Ritual van de Wateringhoeve out of AP Mirra).

The pair made its CDI debut in Sydney in April 2018 and competed at all major internationals in the county through 2019. They campaigned at four international venues in the course of three years: Brisbane, Bawley Point, Boneo and Sydney, clocking four wins.

At the end of 2018 Quizzical sold to Laidley Nathan for Australian junior Lucy Coventry to ride and Tanisha continued with Jembrae Rattle n Hum (by Riverside x Tristram xx), which she competed at CDI Young Riders' level in 2022.
