Lucinda Fredericks, Australian event rider

Read the latest Lucinda Fredericks news

Born Lucinda Murray in 1965, Lucinda Fredericks was successful for many years eventing for Britain, finishing sixth at Badminton in 1992 on Arctic Goose and earning a reserve slot for the Barcelona Olympics that year.

But Lucinda’s greatest results have come since she swapped to her husband Clayton’s nationality – Australian – in 2002.

Although she was a multiple winner at three-star level, wins at four-star level evaded Lucinda until she formed a brilliant partnership with the diminutive mare Headley Britannia, which has resulted in wins at Burghley (2006), Badminton (2007) and Kentucky (2009), plus a team silver medal at the Olympics in Hong Kong in 2008.

Lucinda has also ridden at grand prix level in pure dressage and was long-listed for the Sydney Olympics with Azupa Gazelle in this discipline.

Lucinda lives in Wiltshire with her husband Clayton Fredericks and their daughter Ellie (born 2003).
