Mother-daughter duo, Diane Creech and Vanessa Creech-Terauds, both longtime Leatherdale riders, made history at The Royal Winter Fair.

Now, over a decade later, Diane’s daughter, Vanessa, piloted another Leatherdale Farms mount and half-brother to Devon L, Daniel L, to a third-place podium in the 2024 $20,000 CDI3* Grand Prix Freestyle!
