Completely true. Nothing to add. It's just the chance of crossing the path
of an exceptional horse that makes that aspirations of the riders change.
Look at the career of most of the well-known international riders... Why did
they reach that level ? Because they had the chance to ride an outstanding
horse! 

I don't know Tom personnaly but i'ts sure that he likes to have a
provocative attitude.

Dubai for the President's cup .... be careful!!!

What makes one so sure that "locals" have no other aspirations?

When Becky and I started riding in 1974, we had no aspirations.  Since then
she has won 3 world championships. 

When Heather was 11 and started riding with me, she just wanted to ride a
horse.  Now she is the Pan Am Champion and will be in Dubai next week and
will be riding in the President's Cup.

Who knows what aspirations people have when they start.....mb
