Dusty and Dolly are now an official item. After a few flirtations when Dolly has broken into Dusty’s feild they have now been on a date together to West Wilts arena eventing. Dusty did a fab clear and Dolly had 4 faults in her first class but then had a much improved second round which she won and qualified for the Championship at Aintree ❤️ 🌷 ❤️ 🌷

Winter dressage 🥶
Vinnie behaved beautifully on this very chilly Sunday morning to get a first place at Sparsholt dressage. Harley also got to strut around the dressage arena and came second in his class. Huge well done Miranda and Andrea 👏👏👏
It was lovely to see both horses so well turned out and doing so well.

The weekend before Alice and Dolly also went out to dressage and came 1st and 7th. Big thanks to Catherine and Miranda for helping with the plaiting and Andrea for the lesson the day before 🙏 🌟

Alice and Dolly competing at the Tetrathlon nationals. Dolly was a ⭐️ just having the first show jump down. It is only their third competition together so I was extremely proud of their performance. Dolly loved the course and really flew round 😍🐎

Ben came to stay on his way to his first intermediate. What a fabulous job Hannah is doing with him, he is now consistently getting dressage marks in the 20’s and made nothing of a beefy xc track.
😍🤩😍🤩👏👏👏

Miranda and Vinnie went to their first competition this weekend. As an ex race horse who can sometimes get flustered when he is working with others we weren’t sure how he would be in a competition environment. However, he behaved impeccably and came 3rd!
Well done Miranda your patience and work are paying off he looks beautiful in the pictures 😍

Alice and Dolly have qualified for the 70cm pony club showjumping championships with two lovely clear rounds at Crofton Manor. Her team came 2nd and they were individually 9th out of 80 competitors.

Super Salty won the area dressage with 79.4% coming individually and team first 👏👏👏

Salty and Alice had already qualified for the eventing championship at Rectory Farm with an individual and team second so we are really looking forward to a fun weekend there at the end of August ⛺️ 🏇

Hannah Hobhouse and Ben completed the 2star a Nunney this weekend. They got a fabulous dressage score of 26 which put them in 3rd place in a field of 70 competitors. They had an unfortunate pole down show jumping but then made the xc look easy 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Dusty did one better winning his class and the Working Hunter Championship 🤩🥇

18/06/2023

Dolly was supposed to do the RA tet this week but we decided the ground was too hard. Much to Alice’s disappointment we withdrew from that and got a last minute entry at Sparsholt in the working hunter class. Although it didn’t make up for missing the tet she did a lovely clear round and came first 🥇
