It was great to have 7yr old Chloe back for her first lesson after Christmas. She got a new pair of jogburs and a BTR jacket from Santa. Great work out on the road with Dolly, as we passed a milk tanker and a digger and Chloe did terrific hand signals and safety checks. We spotted the first snowdrops, hardy we flowers, that push through adverse conditions, even though they look so delicate. Ending in an active trot and a trip around the world....

We haven't seen our junior class for 3 weeks, so they were as keen as mustard to get back on the saddle, sporting their new horse gear from Santa! Fabulous hand signals, safety checks and staying calm past the road works Amber, Betsy and Minnie. All in a days work for the BTR ponies....

BTR would like to wish 12yr old Farrah and her mum, Kerri all the best as they embark on their next equestrian journey, as they take on a loan pony. Farrah came to us 4yrs ago as a complete beginner and so although it is sad to see a pupil go, we are happy that we have had a small part to play in their progression. We will see you both back for trails and beach rides in the future! ❤️
