Catherine and Sambuca aka Kwensie at the shows had the most amazing time at Winter Nationals at Addington gaining so much experience in a bigger atmosphere.
They scored 68% in the novice freestyle finishing 13th which Cath was thrilled as with, the next day a 67% in novice 37a she was so well behaved, but tired on day 3.

When she came as an unbacked 3 year old Catherine had planned that one day she get her to the nationals.
Thank you to everyone who made it possible, it takes a big team of amazing people and so much thanks Debbie Scott Downs for being the most amazing groom and support at the show.
Now to train on and get there again …….. and do all again 🤞

Sambuca and I had the most fabulous time at the regionals held .

We did the novice music first to finish 4th, then the novice silver to finish 7th.

I really couldn’t ask for more from her than two top ten finishes at the regionals.

I’m so proud of her and I’m loving this journey of taking time to produce my own rather large 🤣 dressage horse from scratch.

A huge thank you to the best trainer you could ask for , and to my amazing farrier . Also thank you to Debbie Scott Downs for being that best groom, and to my mum .peck and husband to be who is always there to support me.

Also a thank you to the girls on the yard who without I couldn’t go out competing & .

Sambuca and Cath had a fantastic time Area festivals finishing 13th on 67% on only her 4th Elementary Silver test. Thanks to everyone who helps, there’s always a team of people that makes this possible. Now really looking forward to the regionals at Wellington in Feb.

Thank you to Sean Roche , Emma Roche , Shaynie Bone , Emma Walser and Debbie Scott Downs.

A good week out competing with Sambuca and Ferdi.

Camilla woods five year old Ferdi went to his first affiliated competition at Belmoredean having only been out once before unaffiliated. He couldn’t have been a more perfect five year old, he was a little tired in his test which lead to a few baby mistakes, but we were all very proud of him.

Sambuca went to Merrist wood today and achieved 67.9% in novice 38 winning her section, and with 70.5% came 2nd in her section in her novice music.

A big thanks to the best trainer Emma Roche.

The regionals were not meant to be this winter for Cath and Sambuca . Cath unfortunately had gastroenteritis, which kept her bed and no where near Sambuca for the entire week before the regionals ! She was devastated but Sambuca comes first and neither of them were prepared. So bring on the summer regionals for them both!! The horses always come first.

Sambuca and Catherine doing work today without stirrups. Making it more difficult by having the reins in one hand. This was working on Catherine’s position , especially the ability to have an independent seat, because without an independent seat, you can’t remain in perfect balance over the horse’s center of gravity in all the gaits without leaning, gripping with your legs, or hanging onto the bridle. An independent seat is all about having equal distribution of your weight and balance. Until you have complete control of your own body, you can’t hope to influence the horse’s body too. . . . #turtlesfarm #turtleslivery #dressagehorse #dressage #equestrian #equestrianlife #liveryyard #liveryyardlife #englishcountryside #horseriding #farmlife #stables #stableslife #horsesofinstagram #partlivery #fulllivery
