Very excited about the newest addition to my team of horses. 4yo thoroughbred gelding Mister Jonno (Fastnet Rock x Cats Whisker) just retired from racing and will start his retraining in a few months after he’s had a good spell. I loved working with him as a pretrainer and am more than happy his owners sent him back as soon as he retired as a racehorse🩷🐎

All 3 horses have done very well at the Geelong Horse Trials last weekend. Dainty finished her second 1* just out of top 10, Oscar finished on his dressage score and is ready to move up to 95, and 4yo OTT Panda finished her first Horse Trials in 9th place after a quick stop at the water jump. Very happy to have a great team of horses competing at the moment 🐎❤️

SOLD!!!
Beautiful registered Gypsy Cob Partbred gelding, 10yo (Nov 2012) 14.2hh
“Serenity Park Summer in Snow” (Teddy) sired by imported Gypsy Cob “Manni” out of “Serenity Park Ella” (Clydesdale x Arab)
Teddy was brought back into work after a longer spell as owner retired from horses.
He’s been down the road on his own and in company, he does basic flat-work, is great with traffic and self-loads onto the float. He’s done extensive trail/bush-riding with his owner alone and with other horses.
Lovely, calm little horse with a great attitude, but needs a confident rider to keep him going.

Lottie’s first dressage competition in Australia and she places 2nd in the novice 2.2 and novice 2.3 test ❤️

Another great weekend competing at the Marcus Oldham Ballarat Horse Trials. Oscar did his first 80, had 2 rails down and finished on a confidence building, slow Cross Country round, but without any jumping penalties 😊 Dainty did another 95 and finally improved her dressage score 🥳 Still enough to work on, but I was more than happy with her. She jumped a perfectly clear round and only added some time penalties on Cross Country.
Thanks to the People On Ponies and their ongoing support, she won the pony award in the 95 section 🤩🥇

We’ve had a great weekend at MSJC! The number of horses, classes and rides at competitions in Australia are just incredible 😃 All classes were perfectly organized and the whole event was run so well ❤️ Dainty placed 5. in the 1.00m against horses in a class of 65 competitors and 4. in the Pony Grand Prix 🤩 Unfortunately, Oscar missed his 75cm as I was riding Dainty in the jump off and therefore he had to go straight into the 85cm first time the height and in an indoor. He had some big spooks along the walls, but luckily he didn’t forget to jump and settled after a nervous start with 3 rails. He’ll have some more exposure in the coming weeks and I’m very happy with both horses and their results 😍🥰 Big thank you!! to Molly Mclean and Caitlin Pauley for all your help.

Oscar and Dainty had so much fun last week 🥰 It was Oscars first competition and he’s done so well 🐎🤩 Dainty is getting more and more confident on cross country but still so much work in dressage. Both horses placed in their classes 🌟

It was an amazing expirience to compete at the Dressage and Jumping with the Stars Performance Pony Championships and Lottie placed 3rd on a 87.7% score (Dressage/ Showjumping and conformation) 🤩🥉❤️ Thank you to People On Ponies for running the Performance Pony classes and supporting Pony competitions in all disciplines. 😍

First time at Wandin and first 95 class for us. After a very nervous dressage test on Saturday, Dainty went great on the cross country course on Sunday morning. The focus we lost in dressage was back and she had no issues with the fences or the hilly terrain. We added some time penalties as I preferred to go for a calm confident round, over the bigger fences. In the final showjumping Dainty went amazing, jumped clear and wasn’t tired at all. Unfortunately, I forgot to jump one fence. Although we’ve been eliminated in the last phase, it was a great competition and we learned a lot. Definitely working on coming back next year 🤩❤️

Both Ponies did very well this weekend at the Marcus Oldham Geelong Horse Trials
Dainty placed again in the EvA 80 and came 7th. After a 2 years break, travelling from Switzerland to Australia and having a foal, Lottie came 3rd in her first EvA 65 and won the People On Ponies Award. She looks lovely in her new POP rug that came with it 🤩 Thanks to Marcus Oldham the McCann Family in Inverleigh and Southern Stars Saddlery for sponsoring this class and the event and to everyone who was involved. We’ve had so much fun and are definitely coming back next year 🐎🥰🐎

After an awesome weekend competing at the Gisborne EA Horse Trials, Dainty placed 8th at her first EvA 80. After a surprisingly good dressage test yesterday, she went clear in showjumping and was flying around the Cross Country Course today. Overall she finished on a 34.2 score 🤩 I’m very proud of my little supergirl! 🐎💕

Last weekend Dainty and I attended the 3 day Eventing Clinic at Gisborne Pony-Club. With 6 amazing instructors and 9 lessons in 3 days an absolute highlight and incredibly well organised event 😃
After some discussions about speed limits on a xc-course with my pocket rocket 🐎🐎 Dainty jumped a fantastic clear round on the last day 🤩 We improved our dressage work and enjoyed every showjumping lesson. I’m so excited about Dainty’s progress, her work ethic and everything I’m planning for us this year🌟

After weaning her first foal, my imported mare “Penumbria Lottie” will be back in work and ready to compete 🤩

My German Riding Pony Dainty Girl and I enjoyed competing at the Bacchus Marsh Ponyclub combined training day. She finished her first dressage test and added a clear showjumping round. Couldn’t be happier with her and her progress over the last year 🌟❤️
