It all started with a phone call in March. Tamra Smith’s good friend Leigh Mesher called to inform her that she would be withdrawing her horse Mar De Amor from the March 4-6 Twin Rivers Horse Trials in Paso Robles, Calif. Mesher is pregnant, and her doctor thought it was time to take a break from riding. Smith jokingly mentioned to Mesher that she would ride the gelding anytime. And thus the partnership began.
Smith hadn’t expected Mesher to take her suggestion seriously. “It was really a chance thing that I got to compete him,” said Smith, Murrieta, Calif.
