Dade City, FL (March 1, 2012) – One year after adding the talented horses Uniek and Splash to his team, Weber once again drove away as the winner of the FEI Four-In-Hand division at the 2012 Little Everglades Combined Driving Event. Weber debuted Uniek and Splash at the Dade City, Florida, competition last year and returned this year to reclaim his title.
“I was very pleased with how my team performed. They were super,” Weber said. “One of the highlights of the event was our dressage test. It went very well with Uniek and Splash, who are owned by Jane Forbes Clark, in the lead; Boris was the left wheel for the first time and Senate in the right wheel.”
Team Weber drove away with a score of 38.83 in the dressage test, proving that Weber has lived up his title as “the dressage specialist,” a term coined by the foreign press. Weber received the high praise during his 2011 European summer tour in which he kept the American flag flying high in winner’s circles in Austria, Hungary and Germany.
