Itโs been great to be back out at shows.
Yesterday we headed to Arena UK
I took Conker & Boo for the clear round where they both jumped great & clear.
Kaya was a little star double clear to be 7th in the 1.05 & double clear to be 5th in the
Newcomers.
Crispie was a naughty monster, I thought I would just give him a nice pop round the 1.20 for his first outing back but he had other ideas ๐ luckily he has redeemed himself today at Vale View jumping double clear to finish 2nd in the 1.30!
I also took Conker & Boo again today to Vale for the clear round where they both jumped lovely clears!
Thank you to our team, owners & sponsors both throughout lockdown and now we are back up and running again.
Looking forwards to the rest of the summer producing a team of lovely young horses.

With the big recent surge for trying hoods on horses and the affects they have on more difficult ones I spoke to Jayne Flook at Belvoir Equine Supplements and Laser Therapy LTD and asked her if she had any information on them. From there I have been using the Catago Fir Tech hood on a mare that tosses her head a lot whilst being ridden and the difference is huge. Here is a little clip of her in the hood. These hood are also really great value at ยฃ35 and can be bought through Jayne from Belvoir Equine.
This week our jumping exercise was jumping in a figure of eight...here is our lovely six year old popping one way through it today!

Thanks as ever to Jayne Flook of Belvoir Equine Supplements and Laser Therapy LTD for delivery of some of our most used supplements to help keep our horses feeling the best they can which is just as important whilst we stay at home at the moment ๐
It maybe the last show of 2020 & the last show for a while with going back into tier 4 but it was great to have little Kaya back at a show after her winter holiday. A win at the training show on Monday & 6th in the 1.05 today at the BS Show.
Thank you ValeView Equestrian for running some fantastic training shows & BS shows throughout December even in these tough times itโs been very much appreciated!
No better feeling like being back at a Show! Both horses jumping super & both jumping clear rounds ๐

The cheekiest little homebred 4 year old who has had to be a fighter from day one of life, is now jumping his first courses out training and making us all smile ๐
Cholmondeley Castle Showjumping
Great to have another day out Eventing on Monday. The Intermediate horses were on good form at Cholmondeley Castle with both Tricia and Chip and Claire and Vivienne jumping double clears.
Busy day with lorries going in different directions Claire & Tricia headed to Emilie Chandler Low Woods Farm for Claire to have a lesson & Tricia to use her new canter circle with Chip.
Katie & Shannon headed to Hyde Lodge for their training show and a good day with no poles down! ๐
Shannon & Fabio in the 1m as they havenโt been anywhere recently but jumped a lovely foot perfect round. Katie also rode Kaya in the 1m. Katie got to ride Crunchie again for the day so she didnโt miss out on an outing, she jumped straight in the 1.10 she is such a cool little horse.
