WELLINGTON, Florida, Mar. 12, 2024–Adrienne Lyle has entered the 12-year-old Helix in a national Grand Prix at the Global Dressage Festival this weekend, the second of two horses that were bought by Florida businesswoman Heidi Humphries for the Olympic and world team silver medal rider to compete.

Helix is a KWPN gelding (Apache x Jazz) that was competed at international level Grand Prix last year by Marina Mattson, including on Sweden’s teams at Nations Cups in Rotterdam, Netherlands and Falsterbo, Sweden.

Adrienne and Helix, owned by Heidi’s Zen Elite Equestrian Center of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida are scheduled to compete Friday at 2:29 pm local time (19:29 Central European Time). The combination is also on the schedule for Saturday at 11:28 am (16:28 CET) and Sunday at 9:21 am (14:21 CET).

Adrienne made her show ring debut on the 13-year-old Lars van de Hoenderheide, also owned by Zen Elite,  in a national Grand Prix at Global last week. The pair rode hors concours, meaning no score was posted.

Bohemian, the Olympic mount of Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour of Denmark, was also bought by Zen Elite and has been competed by Endel Ots in two national Grand Prix at Wellington.
