Rider Biographies

Jonelle Richards

Country: New Zealand

Age: 30

New Zealand-born Jonelle has been based in the UK for around seven years and runs a competition yard in Marlborough along with her partner, fellow Kiwi and international rider Tim Price. This will be Jonelle’s second visit to Burghley – she made her debut in 2004 with Mazetto, but fell on the cross-country.

Flintstar was produced to intermediate level by Jonelle’s head girl Darnelle Hubbard before he was ‘stolen’ by Jonelle.
