April 2015
I've had a brilliant time this month, really
enjoying combining being busy with the horses and being a mum. It's great not
only being back in the saddle but also back out competing and catching up with
everyone, the horses are feeling fabulous after their little rest and performing brilliantly. Cornets Steal has managed to jump her last discovery
double clears just before the cut off date despite becoming very exuberant and
us parting company in the collecting ring at Bishop Burton.
It was great to catch up with Florina a lovely 5y/o who I
sourced as a 3y/o on one of my outings. She is looking stunning and appears to
be all set for the coming event season. Eleta and Tracey have been in the line
up a few more times this month as well, even picking up a prize at the big area
show. It's great not only that she is one I produced but also that I still
train this pair and seeing them progress so well is just awesome. I love
teaching and helping people and it's so rewarding when achieve their goals. It
was exciting to see one of my regular clients young horses go on to win
recently at the Bedale Point to Point. The Dark Duchess owned by the Brader
family came regularly to my clinics last year to begin her jumping education
with her rider Charlotte Lawson. The mare won on her debut at the Bedale Point
to Point winning the Maiden race impressively with substitute jockey Emma Todd
on board whilst regular rider Jack Teal watched from the side-lines after a
recent injury.
It's all stations go now with the season getting well
underway, Cornets Steal is getting set for Chatsworth and Bramham BYEH and also
the young horse British Dressage qualifiers along with a new ride for this
season Moss Farm Studs lovely 4y/o Ginacolada. Dayton will have his first BE
run at Richmond in a couple of weeks and Ebolensky and Dipinahoe are getting
set to gain some experience at some of the smaller county shows in showjumping
classes as well as contesting in BS regional finals.
As I'm sure everyone can imagine fitting in all this and
being a mum is quite exciting at times, luckily Charlie seems to have enjoyed
coming to shows with us and Im enjoying being a Mum as well as being back out and busy
again.
