What are we to make of a woman who rides faster than men?
“The Blonde with the Heart of a Fighter” is the title Robert Sommer gave to his article about amateur national champion Gaby Brunner in the sports section of the Kronenzeitung on Sunday, June 20, 1986. With affectionate language and plenty of humor, Gabriele Hitsch (formerly Brunner) gives us a glimpse into her equestrian past. In these pages, you’ll experience Gaby’s fascinating journey from an animal-loving teenager to a champion apprentice jockey and national champion in Austrian horse racing. In this book, follow her career up close and see how she rose to the top through her love of animals—especially horses—her discipline, rigorous training, and, above all, as Gaby repeatedly emphasizes, the joy she found in working with racehorses and her deep passion for the sport, ultimately becoming a professional jockey in 1987.
