Hickstead Qualifier - Tick

Weekends don't get much better than this weekend ... Our first

Pony Premier show of 2023 at Aintree International Equestrian Centre - Go Fast

D'Argan jumped his socks off on Saturday jumping DC in the Graham Heath and then just a pole in the Winter 138cms Second Round which was completely rider error but finished 15th out of 39 and couldn't have been happier with how he jumped. Sundays warm up class left us with a couple of poles but Arg came back fighting in the Winter 138cms Second Round not only did him jump his socks off but went three rounds and took the WIN to give us the Golden Ticket to the Roval international- What a pony!!!! A massive thank you to my trainer Mark Kyle and to the whole team that's behind me and my ponies and horses especially my sponsors

2022 Round Up!

December 31, 2022

What a year 2022 has been! From producing my young pony Arg to travelling around Europe jumping for Team GB.

We welcomed some new horses to the team, back at the end of 2021 Benny arrived and this year we’ve gone from strength to strength finishing the year jumping some amazing rounds. Then G Star Blue arrived in May as an exciting addition to the Team! We finished the year out in Kronenburg for the Nations Cup COH.

After a fantastic show at POYS in April we were selected for the children on horses Team GB for the nations cup in Fontainebleau and Lamprechtshausen with Rosa. Rosa jumped her socks off for some lovely clears at both venues in some huge classes.

In summer we attended the Dorset county for another amazing show with Benny placing in both his classes.

September saw us chosen once again this time with G Star Blue to jump in Kronenburg for the Children on Horses Nation Cup Finals! Both horses travelled out to the show and it was a fantastic experience for them both. Benny was DC and placed in his class and G Star also jumping an amazing DC for top 10 placing!

We then spent the rest of the year at our more local shows with the horses and ponies gaining multiple placings and collecting those important double clears on the ponies for their qualifiers.

This December I recently started volunteering at Green Cottage RDA and it’s been so much fun!

So after a very busy and jam packed year I want to firstly thank my mum and dad for the huge amounts of support they give me and the horses, I am eternally grateful! Teamwork makes the dream work!

And finally thank you to my sponsors, without your support none of it would be possible!

Go Fast D’Argan was feeling mighty fine after his XC trip in the week for a DC and 5th in the 138 Handicap and DC and 7th in the Newcomers

Mexicali P had a long wait on the box but came out super chilled for a DC in the Children on Horses 95cms and then just an unlucky stride where Benny thought he had it all under control steaming on down a related distance left us having the pole In the 1m05 Class but so pleased with how he went!
