Dulcie competing Shelford 80cm unaffiliated - 3rd. I had entered her in the 80cm as she can be a little spooky cross country, and like a lot of inexperienced horses, very busy looking at everything but the fences! She took me by surprise and even though it was only her second ODE, she locked onto all the fences and thoroughly enjoyed herself. Her next outing will be 90cm.
Although 2020 was very limited on the competition side, Dulcie's love of jumping meant that I took her XC schooling a few times. Here she is at Winters XC thoroughly enjoying the water complex.
Held at Bishop Burton.
After having had nearly 3 weeks off due to a minor injury, we just managed to complete enough training sessions before the Winter Regionals.
Elementary 59 we were a little ring rusty and very spooky so finished down the order.
Elementary Freestyle to Music we performed a solid test to finish 3rd.

And for something a bit different, a few of my son's sheep from his flock of pedigree Hampshire Down's.

Cluedo selected to represent British Dressage Northern Region and England at this years Senior Home International. A fantastic weekend, great team spirit and lots of new friends made.
Warming up for two Medium tests.
Once again I will be coaching at the BHS Clinics to be held at Riseholme College on the following dates: 31st October 2015, 5th December 2015, 16th January 2016, 20th February 2016 and 26th March 2016. All ages and abilities are catered for. Groups of three.
Two tests showing much more maturity. 68.54% and 70.35% for two wins at novice level.
Definitely ready for bed that night!
An early start, and a long day but very pleasing results.
Cluedo, having only recently been registered with BD gained a very respectable 8th place in the Novice Open section. A promising test, although he was somewhat unsettled, as it was only the second time that he had travelled with Phoebe, and he was calling to her for much of the test.
Phoebe has just moved up to Medium level, and gained 9th place in the Restricted section. A solid test, but she still has to strengthen much more before she can gain the higher percentages.
We arrived mid afternoon Tuesday, and had Phoebe settled in her stable within 30 minutes of arrival, thanks to very efficient Hartpury organisation. Easy stretching work that evening before an arena familiarisation walk. Wednesday we had an early test time. Phoebe warmed up well, but performed a mixed test. Some lovely work for 7's and even the odd 8, but unfortunately interspersed by some 4's and 5's, when the horse eating arena monsters suddenly appeared! Overall a positive experience.
