"Skip (Sommersby) was an Anglo-Trakhener.  He competed through I-1 with his previous owner.  I bought him at 11 when I was a barely adequate First Level rider.  He took me to PSG.  Although I never competed at PSG, Skip took me through all the movements at home.  At the end, I was a certified Fourth Level rider with a bronze medal.  Skip was an incredible schoolmaster."
