PrintStats: age 51, Port Perry, Ont.
Napalm: gr. g., 16.3 hands, 14 years, Irish Sport Horse (by The Joker), owned by rider, Kelly Plitz and Tracey New-man, Port Perry, Ont.
This pair placed 23rd at Rolex Kentucky in 2006 and 20th here in 2007. Last year, they finished 23rd at the Fair Hill CCI*** (Md.), and this spring they placed eighth in the advanced at The Fork (N.C.) and 12th in an advanced division at Southern Pines (N.C.).
Jimmy's Prediction: Ian no longer has anything to prove. However, he wouldn’t want to miss out on the chance of riding a good horse around Rolex Kentucky. Napalm should make these jumps look easy. This is one of the few combinations that could conceivably finish with their dressage score.
