Another successful heartbeat scan today! Holly is in foal to the lovely @thebreenteam Colmar Think these two should compliment each other nicely Let's hope for a safe arrival now, roll on 2024!
Happy Atlas proud of his 3rd place today. Last Discovery double clear done to qualify for second rounds next time round. Now the hunt to get our other 2 Newcomers and start on the Foxhunters! Let's do this!
Another fantastic day with Atlas at Mid Somerset show He really is loving the big grass rings at the moment. A win in the Discovery 1m and another double clear in the Newcomers .10m to finish just outside of the placings Super pleased with his progression ... Very well earned day off tomorrow! https://www.facebook.com/reel/273680085377176
Otto loving his Himalayan salt lick provided by @epuk_southwest @equineproductsukltd Perfect little addition in the field which they're all enjoying! We are very thankful for their support!
Think the smile in the photo says it all! 2 top rounds jumped by Atlas at Gillingham and Shaftsbury Show yesterday! He loved the big atmosphere and the grass ring. Absolutely pinged around to come 6th in the 1.05m speed class and 4th in the 1.10m jump off class. He got himself a proper little fan club by showing off his scope so m...
Harpers second ever competition so we throw her in at the deep end and take her to a County Show!! After getting over the initial shock in the warm up with so many other horses she soon settled and behaved absolutely impeccably the whole morning! Not the judges cup of tea as she was so much smaller than the rest and she didn't particula...
Who would have thought that July would have involved rain sheets?! Little Zeus is probably the closest I'll come to feeling like a proud parent looking at their kid in over sized school uniform and longing them to grow into it He looks super cute though, I'm sure you'll all agree! Already a 4'6ft and still growing like a weed, he's looking super!
On Friday 4th August we headed off to Addington Equestrian Centre for the Trailblazers Combined Training Championship.

We had entered for b...
