Well, it only took seven months, but I finally managed to stick to one of my 2025 New Year’s resolutions and got out competing at the Eastern Region Dressage at Marlton Stud on Saturday πŸ˜….

As always it was a really well run event with perfect riding weather and Hazel was a little star calm, focused, and took it all in her stride to deliver two solid tests.

Big thanks to Jean for getting both Hazel and me prepped for the day, though to be fair, one of us needed a bit more tuning up than the other πŸ«£πŸ˜‚

With a nice action shot from to capture the moment and who as ever supplied the much needed and exceptional coffee

We're so delighted that Jean successfully passed her List 3 Exam πŸ‘
