The Dressage Foundation is pleased to announce the 2025 recipient of the $25,000 Anne L. Barlow-Ramsay Grant for U.S.-Bred Horses. The purpose of the Grant is to showcase talented American-bred horses ridden by United States citizens, by providing money to train and compete in Wellington, Florida, or in Europe. This year’s recipient is Kristina Harrison-Antell with Juilliard DG.

Juilliard DG is an 11-year-old Dutch Warmblood owned by Emily Murray and bred by DG Bar Ranch in California. Kristina has trained Juilliard since he was three years old and has a successful record on the West Coast as he has come up through the levels. With her grant funding, Kristina will travel to Wellington, Florida, for the winter season and train with Charlotte Bredahl.
Kristina said, “I am incredibly honored to be the 2025 recipient of the Dr. Anne L. Barlow Ramsay Grant for U.S.-Bred Horses. Developing young horses from the ground up has long been a passion of mine, which makes receiving this grant especially meaningful. I’m proud to be riding and training multiple horses that have been bred right here in the United States. With the support of this grant, we will continue to grow, learn, and gain valuable experience and confidence as we work toward our goal of representing the United States in international competition.
This journey would not be possible without the generous support of The Dressage Foundation and its donors. I am deeply grateful and hope to make you all proud. A heartfelt thank-you also goes to Juilliard’s wonderful owner, Emily Murray, and to my incredible coach, Charlotte Bredahl, for her unwavering support and guidance.”
The Anne L. Barlow-Ramsay Grant Fund was established at The Dressage Foundation in 2008 by Dr. Barlow-Ramsay to fulfill her desire to support U.S.-bred horses that are competing on the international dressage stage. Since 2008, thirteen recipients have been awarded a $25,000 grant for training or competition, including those who have successfully competed at the highest level of the sport. Applications are due August 15 each year.
