Jimmy’s Prediction: Rebecca Howard and Riddle Master must now be considered international veterans. Their dressage needs improvement, but Rebecca is a super horsewoman, and that will come with time. They will place outside the top 10 this year, but they could well be serious contenders here next year, and also when the Canadian Olympic team is chosen for London in 2012.
