We did it π₯³ it certainly wasnβt perfect with 34 dressage and 2 poles down, but we completed our first BE100, which 18 months ago seemed completely impossible to me! Malcolm has shown once again what a star he is cross country, jumping clear with just a few time pens and giving me so much confidence for this level! Now to get out to a few showjumping competitions to focus on polishing up our skills in the ring. Huge well done to Angus Stewart Eventing producing a textbook DC with our darling Don ππ so lovely to have Paul TT-Photography and Georgina GG Equine massage therapy sports and rehabilitation massage therapist there with us! Photos from Paul to come π€©
First xc schooling of the year for Malcolm β
Great to be back at Attington Stud 2022 yesterday, Malcolm gave me a brilliant feeling and really enjoyed himself! So nice to get back in my Stride Free jump saddle, freshly checked by Saddle Kindπ it has been waiting patiently for some action since the end of last season π ready to crack on with more training now and excited to see what 2022 season brings π€© π

Malcolm loving his massage from GG Equine massage therapy sports and rehbilitaion massage therapist the other day, thank you so much Georgina! Not only is it so important for his muscles and fascia, but he clearly also finds it very relaxing ππ΄ so itβs good for the mind too π
Malcolm flying over the last for 3rd place today at West Wilts BE90 π₯³π despite me making YET ANOTHER mistake in the test π€¦ββοΈ we pulled off a 29.5 followed by a DC inside the timeπͺπ€© Malcolm felt amazing, what a star he is π so lovely to have my right hand man TT-Photography back too! 3rd in our 3rd BE - good day at the office π thank you @aprilkingeventing for the video!
Extremely proud today of Suzy and Saoirse! I have been teaching Saoirse for a few years now, and she has made huge progress in the last year. We soon realised she was ready to take the step up from her first pony, and little did I know, she would be the most perfect match for my lovely pony Suzy! What they have achieved in just 6 weeks of partnership is truly amazing and Iβm so proud of both of them. The proof is in the pudding, as today they came FIRST in their show at pony club camp, jumping a fabulous clear round! Huge well done to Saoirse and Suzy!! How great do they look together?! ππ§‘π
I was trying to give a little pamper session to supermum Lizzie this afternoon but Kali wasnβt impressed about not being centre of attention π already learning to give proper kisses, she obviously knows this is an important requirement for any equine resident at @rocky.lane.eventing HQ π₯°π€£π @astewarteventing #horsesofinstagram #bestmum #cheekygirl #foalkisses
Just love this snuggly giant, such an affectionate horse and my best team mate ever π₯°πππ€©π§‘ #horsesofinstagram #equestrian #lifewithhorses #happy #happyhorse #happyowner #morningcuddles #5moreminutes
Malcolm really didnβt want to get up this morning ππ₯° #horsesofinstagram #happyhorses #morningsnuggles
Malcolm and Suzy had their regular massages from GG Equine Massage Therapy the other day. These treatments are so important particularly to Malcolm who is doing a lot of work and his muscles do get fatigued and tight/sore. You can see in this video that he was holding a lot of tension in his poll area- after a few minutes of patiently working with him and getting head butted a few times π€£ Georgina clearly helped relieve the tension as the video demonstrates π€© thank you so much Georgina for looking after my horses muscles ππ #horsesofinstagram #equestrian #equinemassage #onlythebestforthebest
