Biography

Bordone is an accomplished completist and dressagist, a multi-degree graduate who never misses a challenge. She began riding horses at the age of eight. Her first successes as a completist come from a very young age: she participated in two Italian Championships and two European Championships as a Junior; she then became an Italian Champion and a European Champion as a Young Rider. Her qualities as an Amazon have been confirmed as a “grown up”. Four times Italian Absolute Champion, in her league there are: two participations in the Olympic Games (Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008, the latter she finished in sixth place in teams); three World Championships (Jerez de la Frontera 2002, Aachen 2006 and Lexington 2010).
