Well, she isn't anymore--she's a junior that grew up and became a very talented senior.  :-)  I fondly remember one of her early rides as a senior, riding on her own--she was at the Santiam Cascade 100 and had done a really nice job on a little mare (1st 100 for the mare, if I recall, although not for Heather) and she tagged up with me at the next-to-last vet check so that her mare would have some company (she was tired but not out of gas) and rode the rest of the way to the finish with me.  I've always been impressed with what a quiet and savvy rider Heather is.  And of course I have to add--all of us CMK folks are proud of Crystals Charm for chalking up yet another "biggie" win (complete with lengthening lead at the end) to demonstrate what those CMK Arabians are made of!
