My name is Patricia Sanchez and I'm a Dressage Rider & Trainer.
After four years at the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art, and having been a student of Rafael Soto and Antonio Cid, among others, I've become a professional horse rider, now my biggest dream is to continue my career in this wonderful world.
My goal is the competition. I think it's the best way to express the work of many hours of dressage, it is the ultimate expression of excellence. And I love to increase my knowledge because "the more you know the more you want to learn."

It was one of the best horses I ever ride. Thanks to his ability to always going forward, his great commitment to work, always wanting to satisfy the rider for his loyalty and his great movements. Although his principles were not easy for me because of the great tension that Centeno was taking in his daily work, I knew he was going to be a great GP horse. I managed to run the runner-up in 6 years competition in the Championship of Castilla y León, and when I had it almost in GP, it was sold to the United States, where it is getting great successes there.

From being a fun horse in the field, it became another of the horses trained up almost GP level, starting one tempis, doing passage, piaffe, etc. He is now triumphing in California at GP level with his owners.

This PRE had two phases, the first one was complicated because it was very dominant and we did not just understand, the second one was when the acceptance of training began. His shiny black colour made him especially beautiful and his super moves for dressage made him number one to triumph. In fact now he is being enjoyed by a professional rider from the United States with very good projection.

This son of Impaciente II was also another dominant in the herd and always wanted to be the leader of it. At the beginning of his first training phase he had a hard time focusing on work, but then he began to understand what had to be the right way to work together and have good results.
