Christen Lane

Christen Lane is a Three Day Event rider based in Hawkes Bay, where she lives with her husband, Tom, their three-year-old daughter, Tabitha, and baby Lochlan on Te Konini Farm. The family farms sheep and beef and manages a small team of mainly homebred horses.

Christen’s career highlights include representing New Zealand three times at the Senior Oceania Championships and winning the Super League Eventing Series three times aboard Tandarra Sweet As, Thunder Cat, and Bellhaven Cumbria.

She has been using Equine America’s Cortaflex HA since it was first available in New Zealand, starting with her first hack, Allie Cat, as a teenager. She has relied on it consistently for over 20 years, using it on Allie’s son Thunder Cat and now on the third generation of her future stars.

Other staple wellness products in Christen’s team include BLS Super Strength and Pro-Pell Plus, which help keep older horses feeling top-notch and support the team during travel and competition.
