Ava - nee "Belcam Aava" - was sent to the Tinneys as a
three year old, for three months of intensive training,
to help kick-start her dressage career with then owner
Kathy Ward. However, her strong will meant her stay
with the Tinneys was extended six months then nine......
and eventually a 1/2 share was given to the Tinneys to
see if eventing was her forte rather than dressage. Luckily
for her it was!.
Her career highlights are impressive. In
2000, she went into the Australia Team camp prior to the
Olympics. Still only 8 years old, Ava came 16th for
Australia at WEG in Jerez and recently has been sold to
Italy.
