No Objection, a former event horse, and his former owner Erin Pitt Berryman had an adorable reunion a few weeks ago in Pennsylvania. Berryman decided to pay a special visit to see her old horse for the first time in 15 years after finding him online one day. After Barryman’s tough decision to sell him off, the two ended up staying on different continents during this period.

It was a dream come true for the rider to be behind his ears in the stunning Pennsylvania countryside. The drifted duo have achieved many successes in their equestrian career while their time apart. The tale of one of the oldest competitive horses is filled with a whole lot of equestrian adventure.

Equestrian friendship has rider-horse goals written all over it

After her work in the Middle East, Berryman searched for No Objection one fine day on Facebook, and the internet made her wish come true. All those who had been impacted by Berryman’s work felt overwhelmed with emotion when No Objection and Berryman reunited. She was delighted to have a final relaxing stroll with him given his old age according to the Chronicle of the Horse. The moment was captured by local equestrian photographer Amy Dragoo.

Reiley, No Objection’s current owner, says, “He’s 26 and has done a lot of good for a lot of people.” As for Berryman, after getting married and relocating to Queensland she scaled back to her horse training and breeding enterprise she had begun in Tasmania. She continued to stay at the same place where No Objection started his journey as a mischievous three-year-old. Back then, she taught him how to stop running backward, and relentlessly worked on turning him into a successful advanced-level eventer, for three years. Berryman mothered him like her baby.

Berryman stressed on methods to keep No Objection to mainland Australia as they advanced through the levels. Since there were no events on the island above the preliminary level, she was at the intersection of tough choices. Despite the dedication and perseverance put into No Objection, she had no choice but to list No Objection for sale. After finishing several of Australia’s largest tournaments, including Sydney and Adelaide, Berryman’s equestrian goals forced her to sell her riding partner but she knew he would continue to thrive in the sport. 

No Objection career highlights 

British Olympian William Fox-Pitt decided to buy him as his next three-star horse from Berryman. In his glorious career in the US, No Objection was ridden by many top riders like Elizabeth Swire (née Stewart) and Phillip Dutton. Pro rider Jennie Saville (née Brannigan) added valued highlights to his career by competing in the CCI4*-L at Fair Hill International (Maryland) in 2012. Finally, he was sold off to a young rider Emma Hartley and her family, where he was nicknamed “Ben.”
