Emily Townsend

Emily Townsend is a 19-year-old dressage rider based in South Auckland. She competes 9-year-old River Park Wyoming at Advanced Medium level, and 5-year-old Southern Star Grace is now established at Preliminary, ready to compete this season.

Her proudest achievements include competing Astek Ginsling at FEI CDI-YR level and representing New Zealand in the Trans-Tasman Challenge at the Wagga Wagga Youth Championships in Australia.

Having worked with both young and older horses, Emily has relied on Equine America products to support the individual needs of her team. Buteless Super Strength and Cortaflex HA Super Fenn have been essential for superior joint support, aiding the performance and comfort of horses competing at higher levels. Super So Kalm has also been invaluable for keeping horses focused and calm at competitions. Her team of horses has been supported by Equine America products for two seasons, and Emily is excited to continue building on that foundation in the seasons ahead.
