Wonderful Wilton!

I was absolutely delighted with Peter Holdgate’s Hayestown Clover Quin on his second run for me at Wilton at the weekend where he completed on his dressage score again to finish in second place in the open novice. I’m looking forward to moving up to intermediate in a couple of weeks. Highmead Proposition (Jake) did…

First time out win on new ride Harley

After a great run from Cascadelle at Barbury International on Friday, on Sunday we headed down to Bicton Arena, one of my favourite venues, with four horses.

I had the best ride I…

I think Derby (Wellshead Fare Opposition) is feeling a little too well! Having warmed up beautifully before his dressage test in the advanced at Withington Manor Horse Trials, he was then a monkey in the arena and became quite tense and fresh. It meant he threw away some marks, so I won’t be fooled by…
