Last month at 19 years of age, she jumped clear in the Nations Cup Final in Barcelona. My job is training Lillie and also managing the horses. She’s at school at Harvard and I keep the horses ticking over,” O’Connor de- scribed. “But I rarely compete them in the ring. Te last time I jumped Sox in the ring was Olympia, last December. So to just basically have a catch ride this week shows you how good the horse is.”
