Hash Brown's reaction to meeting his 5-week-old baby cousin Issac for the first time. I think the audio sums up his feelings. Wait until he learns he's going to be Issac's schoolmaster in a few years time! That's as long as Issac has a very secure seat, a strong resilience to being head butted and excellent independence of seat and hand. Which he will, obviously, being the nephew of Rebecca Hayes 😉🤣🤣🤣

He is, and always will be, the Drama: Hash Brown ❤️

Well, the snow may be gone, and we're back to the mud again. But I personally shall enjoy the memories of my horses pretending to fight for survival for the week. Breaking through ice to drink, ignoring the fresh, unfrozen water buckets I put out. Digging for grass beside the piles of haylage I put out. Eating bits of wood to top up their fibre intake, despite the ad lib forage they had been provided with overnight in their warm, cozy stables and in the morning before being turned out. But my favourite snow memory shall be Hash Brown's complete overreaction to it, every day, without fail🤣 He is the drama❤️

Hash Brown rounding off the weekend in style at a fantastic show in Roscrea! Second in the Novice ❤️❤️❤️ And a qualifying score in the Elementary 💪 In two very competitive classes, some super horses and riders in attendance! And no explosions, rears or Flying Hash Browns!😅 A couple of weeks break from the competition arena now, I think a trip to the gallops will have to be on the cards, time to take a break from this dressage stuff and let loose! He is a racehorse after all!😉🐎🐎🐎

Double win for Hash Brown today in Clonshire in the Novice and his FIRST EVER Elementary!!!! I won't lie, I had a confidence wobble after the Championships, (contrary to popular opinion, I am in fact human😅). But a lesson with Sue Smallman, where she told me I needed to have more faith in my riding, really got my brain back on track💪 I rode my behind off, and he rewarded me by trying his heart out❤️ Hash Brown being Hash Brown, he had to show off his athletism with a brief mishap which involved a very impressive rear in the Novice! Did the test not say levade at H??? 🤣🤣🤣I have no idea what happened, but I remember the judge shouting out the window 'Are you okay???' as I rolled my eyes, swung around and carried on with the test😅 According to the judge and spectators it was very well sat! But he did so well in the rest of the test we still went away with the win! Which is why I always tell my clients, when something goes wrong, it's only one mark, forget about it and ride for the rest of the marks! Not bad for a racehorse😉🐎❤️

Day 2 of championships has begun! A touch of performance anxiety yesterday on Hash Brown's part (you can't blame him, it's Championships!), but with some careful riding, and some unfortunate facial expressions from myself, we landed 6th place in the prelim 💪💪💪😁 The novice test had some super parts, however the judges didn't seem to appreciate him pulling his signature move 'The Flying Hash Brown' during the canter for some reason 🤷‍♀️ If you're lucky I'll show to you later😅 But that's why it's called 'Competition' and not 'Buying a Rosette'! Let's see if The Flying Hash Brown makes an appearance today, finger crossed not🤣🤣🤣
