The Swedish driver beats some big names.

Anna Nordin earned her first U.S. Equestrian Federation selection trial win by beating veteran drivers Bill Long and Gary Stover at the Southern Pines CDE on April 10-12 in Raeford, N.C.

Nordin’s team of Dutch Warmbloods and one Holsteiner is owned by Patsy and Seth Wooten of Wilson, N.C., but the young Nordin, a native of Sweden, is hoping to drive them under the Swedish flag at the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games.
