A little update...

Tilly has qualfied for Winter Regionals!

Tilly has been out three times in Novemeber and achieved some great scores! We have been to Windmill Farm, Merrist Wood and Woodlands Equestrian. We have scored from 71% to a great 78%! Tilly is now qualified for the Winter Regionals at Novice Gold and Novice gold Freestyle.

Tilly had a year out after a field injury and she has come back feeling stronger than ever. She has a lovely character and her canter always puts a smile on my face!

Merri hasn't been out since we had a double win at Woodlands Equestrian in the Small Tour qualifiers at Inter I.
We are now looking forward to the championships at Keysoe EC in December.

Affinity Bay has been working well at home and we went out for a lesson with Stephen Clarke last week. We worked on getting the piaffe passge more on the aids and collecting the canter enough to be able to do more one time changes in balance. We are so lucky to have an increbible trainer like Stephen coach so locally! Thank you for having us Peta.

In other new I have recently been to the British Dressage National Convention. BD kindly gave me some VIP passes which meant we had a great view for the whole day and plenty of refreshments!
I was really honoured to receive the Young Professionals Trophy Awarded from Islay Auty, it was a lovely surprise!

The convention was very informative and inspiring. There were incredible combinations of horses, riders, coaches, vet and judges who gave us an all round view of the different aspects of training and performance.
