Clare Stringer
Horses – Bandolero, Kitty Way and Indian Star II
Clare Stringer is an amateur event rider who competes in eventing for fun and the love of the sport, she owns three horses, two of which are currently being competed in British Eventing competitions and the third is being introduced to work at the end of 2011 following a bout of colic.
Clare manages to balance a busy life of full time work as a Postman for Royal Mail with riding, competing and caring for her horses. She is excellent at promoting her sponsors and with support and encouragement could go to the highest levels of eventing. You can read a lot more about Clare and her event team on her website Team BSF Eventing.
In November 2011 Clare was unveiled as the Shearwater Insurance Scholar for 2012, which means she will receive £500 towards training and Shearwater branded clothing and equipment. At the end of the 2011 season Clare moved her event horses to Kenneth Clawson's yard, where she is able to utilise high class, professional facilities.

Bandolero (Bandi) is Clare’s number one event horse at the moment and they successfully progressed from BE90 to Novice level in the 2011 season. They have also achieved their main aim for this season which was to gain qualification for a CIC* event. Clare describes Bandi as “the 'top dog' in her team… He has an attitude to die for and as you can imagine, after nearly 5 years together, we know each other inside out.”

Kitty Way (Fifi) is a former racehorse that Clare has known since before her racing career at the age of three. When she stopped racing Clare was offered the chance to retrain her as an event horse, which she has now done, completing one BE90, two BE80(T) events and some unaffiliated events. Clare describes Kitty Way as “our super little mare who has bags of talent and loves her job”.

Indian Star II (Indi) is a 3 year old filly and as you can see, she's got a fantastic nature! She has some fantastic breeding on both sides so Clare's hoping she carries that on with a successful career. Indi has had a difficult start to life and the summer of 2011 she suffered a really severe colic attack and needed emergency life saving surgery. Clare says "fortunately she's got a great attitude, tries very hard, is very loving and is beautiful to boot".
