Simply Irresistible

Simply Irresistible aka Dori is a 2001 bay 15hh 7/8 Connemara, 1/4 Arab mare by Elphin Cronan. With 2005 being her first year of competition, she finished her first horse trials in 2nd place and on her dressage score, ridden by a junior rider.

At her first dressage show she placed 1st in both of her tests, and the dressage judge called her "Terminally Cute"! She is now proudly owned by the Varchol family of Summerland, B.C.

In 2007 Dori was ridden by a 14 year old and won everything at entry, finished the season going pre-training and came 3rd in the BC eventing year end standings at that level.
