Zhavana won the advanced medium today 🏆 i say this, as she likes to be firmly in the drivers seat! have never had a mare so sure of herself in the ring. (Bossy moo)
It's been a little while since we've been to a party! The flying changes have been a journey to secure, and at times she's taken flying quite literally! 😅

Te Amo growing and building in strength all the time! All my horses visit the gallops every month. They all enjoy variety in their work, and I have felt a big improvement in their straightness and power!

Tallulah won her class overall, at Golden Cross EQ today. Finishing her regional qualifications. Gaining confidence with every outing. The years of patience is paying off! This is her first season of competing but it’s taken the last 4 years to get her looking and feeling this good 🤩🥇

First show of 2024!
Hasn’t This winter has been relentless. But it’s so nice to see the hard work has been worth it in the end! Both of my girls are lookin And feeling really well!
So good to be back competing at Hickstead today. I just wanted to ride nice, safe tests today as I was feeling a little ring rusty! Zhavana still won her section 🥇 2nd overall (I think she was excited to be out.)
Talulah had absolutely no idea what was going on but kept composure, and Comes in 2nd place🥈in her section! 4th overall in great company. She coped amazingly. She only has one show under her belt, from a year ago. So this is just the start of our competition journey, but it’s very exciting!

Couldn’t be prouder of my two girls 🤩
Thanks Matt Wallis and Hannah Emily Olliff-Lee for all you do for my team
