Hello Equestrian Sims! :D

Name: Lidija Rotherford, or Lidi for short! :)
Reference [at] Contact: I don't have a profile there! I am active member of Equus-Sims and I have a profile on Facebook for my stable, so you can check my authenticity there as well :).
How did you find our site \ forum?: over Equus-Sims.
Why do you want to be in the "Verified"?: I have seen some amazing photographs and creations by the members of your forum and I'd like to see how this community functions. I believe it will be a great source of inspiration!
About my Stables: Rotherford Farms Estate (RFE) is a large competition stable that does very little private or requested breeding. We are a highly organized Estate and take premium care of our equines. We specialize in dressage, but have a few amazing show jumpers as well. We are located in the world of Ardorwen (self-made town) but our competiton headquarters are in Champs du Lys.
Your chosen breeds: RFE breeds top of the line Irish Draughts and Irish Sport Horses. But our Estate counts over 75 horses of various breeds. Most of the breeds that we have but don't breed are Hanoverians, Lusitanos and Grade Horses.
Do you have your character in The Sims?: yes, I do! Her name is Lidija Rotherford (hence my account name) and she is a 21-year-old rider that competes for RFE.

Born and raised in Croatia, currently studying to become a vet! Even though my passion is dressage, my aunt, who owns RFE, wants me to compete in many disciplines, not just dressage. I moved to Ardorwen to live with her and her daughter a few years ago and she accepted me immediately, but still, moving wasn't easy for me when it was time to leave. I had to leave all my friends and family to follow my equestrian dream which I am now living!

She has two horses of her own but competes with three horses in total. The one she competes with (but doesn't own) is a 13-year-old Irish Draught mare AC/RFE Truth Is Beauty which is an absolute talent in everything. The first horse of her own was a 4-year-old Irish Sport Horse gelding named SRE Chasin' The Sun (who is now 8 years old) who competes in Eventing. He is a very nice horse but he's a bit clumsy, so he doesn't have much luck in shows. And the most recent horse of her own that she got is a 3-year-old palomino American Quarter Horse stallion who she competes with in dressage and who is also a special little talented guy.
Screenshot: here's the most recent photo that I entered in an editing class in a dressage show on Equus-Sims. This is RFE Incandescente (his dam is AC/RFE Truth Is Beauty, an Irish Draught mare I mentioned above!), an Irish Draught stallion, ridden by Arthur Jackson. They're competing in the Prix St. George level, after years and years of training! I hope you like this guy and the photo!

Such a nice questionnaire <3
