An update on our beautiful new girl Hipodamia 😍. After a few days in quarantine she joined Bobby and Aria. I am sooooo delighted because she immediately bonded with my Bobs. Those that know, he doesn't make friends easily. And the added bonus of that, is Hipodamia has taken the role of herd leader and put our 2.5yr old filly Aria well and truly in her place. Things will change when we wean the babies and big mama (Jara) joins this herd, but Hipodamia has a lovely temperement so I am not too worried.

Such a sad day but such an amazing legacy these two horses have left 💙

Sleep well Blueberry and Uti, two of the greatest horses of our generation.

It is with immense sadness that we have said goodbye to Valegro and Uthopia and without question, this is a loss that just feels hard to comprehend.

Trying to write a tribute to these two horses feels harder than I imagined. The yard just doesn’t feel the same without them, there’s an emptiness in the air.

Valegro and Uthopia did more than win medals and write history, they gave our sport a golden era. They both showed that greatness can be gentle, sensitive and harmonious and they made a nation proud and inspired so many.

Being part of their journey will always remain one of my proudest achievements and the whole team and myself are deeply grateful for the joy they gave to us at home but also to their fans around the world.

Their entire lives ran in parallel; they travelled to the shows side by side, lived in neighbouring stables, grazed in the same fields and retired together. Their bond and companionship were absolute.

As life as old boys advanced, so too did the health challenges, so allowing them to leave this world together was the final act of loyalty and dignity I felt I could give them, honouring a partnership that had never been separated in life.

They leave behind a huge void, and the yard has changed forever and so have we. They were our family and I will love and miss them always. The impact they had will remain but sadly, we don’t get to keep horses forever.
We only get to carry what they leave inside us. And these two left us so much.
