Bugger…
Wandin is a no go after Chase presumably had an argument with a fence and came off second best.
It’s a bad place to cut on a bendy knee but we’ve got 4 stitches hopefully holding it together long enough for it to heal itself back together.
Luckily not deep and missed anything important!
Big thanks to for the after hours visit and great service 🫶🏻

We’ll see if we can be prepared for Riddells Creek at Easter 🤷‍♀️ 🤞🤞

A few weeks ago we headed to Seville Horse Trials at Shirley Heights and Chase finished on his dressage score which was very encouraging.

This weekend we trekked down to Tonimbuk in the 80 again, and while the dressage and SJ are getting better, parts of the xc we had some communication issues which resulted in a silly and preventable stop early on the course.
As frustrating as that is, it’s still only been just shy of 4 months owning him so there’s bound to be some teething problems!

Off to Wandin next with hopefully a little more control on the hills 🛑 😅

🐎Geelong HT 🐎
A success in that Chase and I had a better understanding of each other in each phase and came away with a better result overall.

No ribbons because we got cooked in the dressage (ring running very late) and nana pants 👵 👖 had to trot through the scary gate past xc control - thanks for the encouragement ! Not sure why I am doing a startled fish impression over the jumps 🫣🤷‍♀️
Just a rider rail in the SJ but I’m getting back in the flow.

Seville HT this weekend at as well as judging another class! Going to be a busy 2 days. Fingers crossed I get brave and go a little faster around a course I’ve schooled over!! If you see me out there be sure to tell me to move it 💨 🤣

What a great little venue Gisborne is, well done to the committee and officials on running a great event!

Our score was more of a cricket score than one to be proud of, with some nana nerves kicking in just before xc and me electing to take it really slow (I love that the commentator thinks it was for the green horse 🤣🫠)

Chase felt brave at all the fences and settled in the last few jumps, but the first half was a bit overwhelming and he was very distracted by everything else out there. It was good to feel what type of horse he can be when elevated, as he is a lazy plodder 99% of the time!

It was truly a relief for me to come home through the flags safe, been a minute and I was in need of a confidence boost 🫣

Hopefully Geelong in 2 weeks will be a slightly less high score and a better partnership being built with Chase, he’s a dude most of the time!

Thanks as always to my little family for not complaining when I drag you round the state in hot weather, you’re my strapper, chef, videographer and psychologist all in one 🥰

It’s been quite a break from any news on this account, focussing on horse searches, my own health and family time.
But now it’s time to show you what we got as early Christmas pressies a couple of weeks ago!!

Chase - Cowboy Caviar - 7yo TB that has had some exposure at EvA80 this year with his old owner, is bloody lazy but has a great willingness to jump and makes a great shape when you get the back end in gear! I didn’t want to start back at the beginning of the retraining journey so took a while to find the right horse for me with some nerves kicking in and doubt about my own abilities creeping around my brain 🫠

Magic/Noodle/Maggi Noodle - 11.2 welsh?something absolute unicorn of a pony for the kiddo! Safe but still needs to be ridden properly 👌

Both are entered in their first competitions in January and it will be soooooooo good to finally be back out there!
