These results mark a significant achievement for Sierra and for Cayman Islands equestrian sport, reflecting her dedication, discipline and continued progression on the international stage.

The Federation extends its sincere appreciation to Diamante Farms for their generosity in providing Giulietta, enabling Sierra to compete at this level. The success of this partnership underscores the importance of international collaboration in supporting the development of talented Caymanian riders.

“Sierra’s performances in Ocala were truly outstanding,” said Sandra Gowrie, Secretary General of the CIEF. “To achieve podium finishes across all classes is a testament to her hard work, commitment and talent. We are incredibly proud to see her represent the Cayman Islands with such excellence.”

Sierra’s accomplishments not only highlight her individual success but also serve as an inspiration to young riders throughout the Cayman Islands. CIEF remains committed to supporting its athletes as they pursue excellence and represent the nation in international competition.
