Long reining day for Andy today. I was told he wasn’t keen on long reins, but especially with a baby, I like to be able to long rein them, it builds confidence, trust and muscle without the weight of a rider. We started off in the arena and, as I was told, he wasn’t keen with the lunge line round his backend. I don’t like to use a roller when long reining babies, they can learn bad habits, such as wrapping themselves up, pulling too much and I have more control like this. Using lots of voice and pressure and release, Andy soon settled and we then did lots of changes of rein in walk and trot, lots of steady transitions and got him walking round the arena with out me next to him, like you do when just lunging. I then wanted to take him out round the farm. He’s getting a little bored of the arena and making his own entertainment up. So a 15 minute walk round the farm did him the world of good! The advice I gave his owner is to take him out the arena completely until I’m back next Wednesday, give him the weekend off, but walk him inhand Thursday, Friday, Monday and Tuesday. He needs to realise that he isn’t going to work hard everytime the bridle comes out, his brain needs to chill out and see the world and going round and round in circles on a surface isn’t good for him. He worked harder walking round the farm in 15 minutes than he did in the school. Different terrains, lots to look at, had to listen to me more and has to use different muscles. Good boy 💪🏻

Had the absolute privilege of going to help Sara with her new pony, Andy. Had a very educational lungeing session, where I learnt how to ski in crocs 😂 he learnt a lot and produced some lovely work. A very quick learner and very excited for Sara! He’s a lovely boy 🥰

Hamish hair ready to be sent off to Radical Wellness for testing. I get him tested twice a year or more if he’s showing abnormal signs in his health. He’s currently coughing, itched his tail and it’s bald at the top and itchy skin. The amazing Keri will run it through her machines and I will send her everything he eats (including supplements) environment, what he wears (materials of rugs, tack etc). Keri will run all of this alongside his hair sample and see if anything flags up that’s causing irritation (so clever). He’s already allergic to life, so there’s not much more we can eliminate 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

He’s never evented before, but somehow, knew exactly what he had to do. Hamish, you made me the happiest girl yesterday and I owe you everything! 32 dressage, one down jumping due to rider error and stormed round clear cross country! It was the day I’ve been dreaming off. Thank you to Emily Gladwin for this wonderful reel 🧡

You would like to think Hamish would be fat after eating like this every night…I can confirm, sadly he’s not 😂 as much as I would like him to be!! A lot of people would kill to have a metabolism like hams 😂

He’s such a good boy. Nothing across the door, but knows he’s not allowed out unless I ask him too. I still get the faces for it though 😂🧡

This orange nugget is looking so well for a thoroughbred coming out of winter and it’s all thanks to my fantastic yard owners Claire and Charlotte for looking after the orange beast in such a ‘hamish’ way, Radical Wellness for always making sure his allergens are under control and I can feed the correct feed and Equi-Supple Animal Physio for keeping his muscles in top condition 🧡
