Billy is back in the ribbons again! He came 2nd in the STAGBI SbORT awards for 2024 🥳🥰❤️❤️😍🥹

Huge congratulations to the winners of the inaugural SbORT Awards. SbORT (Standardbreds Off the Race Track) is part of STAGBI that celebrates the versatility of the Standardbred and the alternative careers they can enjoy outside of racing. Though Standardbreds are primarily bred for harness racing,....

Join EGB not the BHS for your third party insurance! It's £16 cheaper and opens up way way more opportunities, if you're currently riding without third party insurance you must be absolutely mental! £80 for the year, 24/7 365 third party insurance peace of mind when riding on the roads or at events, and you'd also be supporting the best equestrian sport there is (my opinion) and be able to compete at local endurance rides, pleasure rides, GERs etc at the cheapest rate. It's a no brainer!

THINGS TO DO TODAY!

All current members will have received their membership renewal invitations via email a short while ago and should all be aware of the new and exciting changes that have recently been brought into place to simplify and streamline the Endurance GB Membership Categories into a new three tier system.

Choosing to continue to support Endurance GB by renewing your Membership as a Tier One member (equivalent to the former 'Full' membership) is just £80 for the year, which really does represent even more exceptional value than before for the benefits that you get and compares very favourably with the other equestrian disciplines. considering the price increases we are sadly all too familiar with elsewhere!

Don't forget, this category not only gives you continued 24/7/365 public liability insurance along with discounted ride rates on any distance and any category of ride, but also gives you the opportunity to compete for any of the trophies available and the opportunity to qualify for national trophies, competitions and teams as well as full voting rights at the AGM.

Why not use these cold winter days to look through the ride list on the website, perhaps set yourself a new challenge this year and aim to try a different ride or a longer distance that you haven't tried previously?

GIRTHS & GIRTH TENSION DURING EXERCISE

Just writing up the results of a study looking at the influence of girth type/design and resting girth tension on saddle pressure and stride kinematics carried out with Dr Roberta Blake and her students at .

🐎Did you know that girth tension can increase from 8-12kg at rest when tightended up to 15-35kg during fast canter due to change in the horses body shape within the saddle-girth "band"?
🐎Did you know the increase in girth tension is not due to the horse breathing?
🐎Did you know that increasing girth tension is linked to earlier onset of fatigue, especially at canter and gallop?

What features of a girth do you think have most influence on the horses movement?

🐎Girth material (e.g. elasticity v non-elastic or combination)
🐎Girth width (i.e. narrow v wide)
🐎Girth shape/design (e.g. straight v shaped)
🐎Girth tension (i.e. how tight its done up)

What a weekend! Up at the crack of dawn Saturday morning, horses sorted and hitting the road for 8am in the Disco... 4 hours later we reach our destination - the Endurance GB AGM and awards night. Great to see so many people in attendance on the day and lots of important points raised, discussed and voted on. By 4pm the meeting closed and it was off to check in and relax before the awards ceremony started at 7pm.

It was lovely to see so many people and the food was delicious, especially considering they catered for so many 🤤

Awards were being handed out in between courses and eventually they came to the STAGBI award, for the standardbred with the highest points. Now not for one moment did I consider Billy and I would have achieved anything in this class. We've had an incredible first season, but due to issues with getting his HR down our points were certainly not what they could have been, so when HILLTOP RECON was announced as 3rd I was absolutely blown away. My beautiful, willing little horse, who came with a napping problem, has in his first season(and mine)been placed in a national award! Our friend and(friendly) competition Anita + Frazzle, who we rode with several times over the season came in second place! We just couldn't ask for more from these wonderful horses, they put their hearts into the rides and we have just had the absolute best time competing, traveling all over the country in both England and Wales with our trusty steeds to experience some of the most beautiful places you can possibly imagine.

Anyway enough of the soppy post 🤣 we went on to have a fantastic night of dancing, yet despite the late night we equestrian women were up, bright as a button and down for breakfast before 8 🤣 venturing outside to the car for the first time in over 24 hours it was a relief to breath the fresh air, but we quickly realized on the journey back that there has been quite the storm overnight, with the most horrendous flooding I'd ever seen. Countless 'Road Closed' signs in place due to the flood water, yet this did not deter us, we simply lifted the car suspension and drove straight through! Sadly this wasn't the case for Hayley and Emma who came separately, and had to keep turning back 😭

Certainly a weekend to remember for so many reasons, now roll on the 2025 endurance season, where Billy and I will be upgraded to Open and can do the bigger distances which I think will be much better suited to him, because 25 miles doesn't tire him out 🤣

A full edit from our ride at Pembrey country park a little earlier in the year! Enjoy!
