Zephyrs first show today at Rascal's Equestrian Dressage Competition he was very brave and seemed to love every minute being out and about! Accompanied by his mentor (Daisy) he took it all in his stride for a result just out of the placing in a very strong class! Well done Dominika Grajaszek for taking the reins and giving him a great start. We all adore you Zeph!

Clever little Daisy today at Port Royal. She was a ball of energy in the warm up after hunting a few times over Xmas… but gave me a mega feel around the course- double clear in the 85 and one down in the 90. Feeling on top form for the season ahead… next steps 100cm! Thanks to Laura Rafferty-Trowfor the fab pics 🤩🙏🥰 Roll on Richmond next week end where hopefully she can contain herself!!

Blown away with how much Daisy has improved recently- feeling every inch a serious Pony Eventing prospect at only 14.2hh she made nothing off the 100cm XC fences at Richmond Equestrian Centre she was very excitable to start with doing her little pony bronching, then settled and she pinged round all the bigger fences with absolute ease!!! Onwards and upwards Daisy-doo! 😎🐴🥳

More fun and action with Daisy and Zephyr this week - a spot of free jumping in yesterday’s storm! Zeph is still learning the ropes and Daisy… well had her own ideas deciding to jump out the side line (measuring 1.20) from a standstill. Bernie and Pegs loved the exerccise too. Happy horses 🥰🤩🥳 Rascal's Equestrian Laura Rafferty-Trow Dominika Grajaszek Emma Heelbeck

Time to plan next Spring with British Eventing Official

🛎📢𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫...📣

British Eventing is delighted 🎊 to release next season’s fixtures calendar 📆, which is set to get underway at Epworth (1) in South Yorkshire and Poplar Park in Suffolk on Saturday 2 March 2024.

This year’s calendar has been particularly challenging due to both Badminton and Burghley moving their dates which has had a huge knock-on implication for the rest of the fixtures for 2024 and 2025. We have worked hard with organisers to create the most fair and balanced schedules as possible.

Despite the challenges, there are plenty of positives to focus on including the welcome return of Weston Park who will run on 6-7 April, offering classes from Novice to Advanced, which will no doubt be very popular with members.

There will also be several exciting new grassroots additions to the calendar, including two new events in Scotland; Brechin Castle in Angus (BE80-BE100) and Oatridge in West Lothian (BE80-BE100), while in the South West , we welcome Kingston Maurward in Dorset (BE80-BE100).

𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 👉

View the fixtures calendar here 👉https://www.britisheventing.com/events. Please note that the website is updating at the moment and will take time for all the fixtures to upload.

In the meantime you can view the full fixtures calendar and further details of which classes are running on each day here �https://news.britisheventing.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/2024-Fixtures.pdf

What a lovely gentleman he is- we look forward to getting to know him and his owners. He will be here on part/full livery while the owners fully re-locate to Yorkshire.

How cool do Daisy and Sophia Elliott Eventing look!? Loved seeing them in action at Askham Bryan College Equine BE last week. Top ten dressage followed by a green jumping run, expertly piloted by Sophia. It was there last competiton together so I was gutted for poor Sophia that they didn’t get the results after all the hard work the team have put in over the school holidays! Nevermind! Onwards and upwards and lots of training to do over winter!!!! Thanks to Jayne Elliott and Jo Smith for being super grooms and all the help you’ve given Daisy on her path.
