Få personer har blivit så personifierade med det internationella amatörryttarförbundet Fegentri som tyskan Susanna Santesson. Hon tog själv ett 30-tal ryttarsegrar och tävlade internationellt. Sedan 2001 har hon vigt sitt liv åt Fegentri. Hon var även vice
ordförande i den tyska amatörryttarklubben och ordf i EARS (European Association of Racing Schools) och år 2012 fick hon utmärkelsen Darley Award ”LifetimeAchievement”.
Här några ord från den brittiska journalisten Liz Price:
”She took the amateur sport to new heights over the last few years, mainly through her tireless efforts not only to bring new countries into the game, but much more so by supporting the many riders of the Fegentri. She might have complained about the amount of work she put into it, but she loved it. Just as she loved all of her other involvements with the sport, which went from teaching jockey classes, to organising conferences for education".
