🌟Oh Leo ! What a super star you are . 🌟
Today I got to dust off my tail coat 💕.
Thrilled with Leo and had lots of fun! This was our first comp back since last October! I had some time away from competing due to having a baby girl in April this year.
Today he tackled his second PSG ( I stupidly thought it was his first for some reason and that we did an advanced last October but infact we did an PSG then 🙈 🤣 #babybrain ). He produced some lovely work.
Really looking forward to the gala evening on Saturday at weston lawns .
As always thankyou to our team - really couldn't do it without you!

A little snippet of Leo from training yesterday ❤️.
Such a ❤️ horse.
As you may have seen from our stories we are gearing up for our first comp back this season due to me having a baby in April . Which meant that Leo hasn't competed since Nov last year.
We have taken it slowly getting ourselves back up to competition fitness and now we are SOOoo ready to get back out there 💪🥳. With Leo making his debut at PSG next week at weston lawns 💪.
As always a massive thankyou to our sponsors:

Our horses enjoyed a varied training programme
🔹️As well as using poles and hacking alongside their training in the arena we have been lunging 5 Yr old Vivi in the long grass .
🔸️Giving her a different surface to work on and through we have seen a huge improvement in her balance and core stabilty/ strength.
Most importantly she really enjoys it! ❤️
Let us know in the comments what you do to keep your horses work programmes varied & fun .

Wow what a day!!!! Let's start with the positives...
Today was Indigos 1st ever regionals! Keri had originally qualified her at the begining of the year but had to hand over the reins to Izzy Snead a few weeks ago. (Regionals at 5 months pregnant and with a bad knee wasn't her idea of fun!)
Izzy did such a fab job after having only ridden indigo a handful of times at home. Foot perfect 👌 looked amazing and just 1 tiny spook at the flower pots. We were disappointed with her score but it is what it is. They came away mid field with 66%. We are SO proud!!!!
That's the fun part.... the day did not start like this and I'm surprised we even got to the show ground as we missed the arena walk. Our lorry decided to over heat half way there as the water pipe in the engine had cracked 🫣 a bit of tin foil and duct tape and we made it to the venue!!
On arrival our lovely groom rang us to say 2 of our arena mirrors had somehow smashed as well 😫🤣
So that's our 3 things, missing the arena walk, arena mirrors and lorry being broken!!
A lovely mechanic came out to bodge it back together for us so we could get home.
Looking at the positives, indigo was amazing and held her own in the gold section. So proud. Thank you to the team for the continued support 🙏

Fantastic to be back out training yesterday at the Eilbergs with our 5 Yr old Vivi 💪❤️ and of course Arna came along 🥰. She is a well travelled baby 👶 🤣.
Can't believe she now 10 weeks old! Where has the time gone !

The other week 5 yr old Vivi attended her first session at the water treadmil.
There are so many benefits to including this in her training to help develop her core strength, fitness / stamina and muscle development just to name a few .
Looking forward to seeing how she progresses with this added element in her training .
