Another fantastic day out yesterday at the Threewaters Riding Club Show at Pendarves.

Maggie and Monty made a brilliant comeback after a 3-year break, taking 5th in the Coloured Class – what a return.

Jade and Black Jack stormed to victory in the Cob Class – Lovely feedback from the judge.

Special shoutout to Tara for her fabulous grooming skills – the horses looked absolutely stunning.

It was a blazing hot day, and these incredible horses still gave it their all. They also work in our riding school, showing just how versatile, hardworking, and amazing they truly are.

A massive thank you to the team back at the yard for holding the fort and keeping everything running smoothly while we were away.

✨ Stithians Show 2025 ✨
Black Jack absolutely surpassed all our hopes this weekend! 🥇 He took 1st place in a strong Rising Stars Lightweight/Heavyweight Cob Qualifier — and then went on to be Reserve Champion in the overall Rising Stars Championship! 🌟

This is only his third ever show… what an achievement for such a special boy.

Seeing everyone come up to meet him afterwards was humbling and joyful what a special horse 💫

And of course, thank you to everyone who keeps Jack ticking along behind the scenes — it truly takes a team. 💜

Hot Weather Update from Old Mill Stables 🐴

With the warm weather upon us, we’re taking steps to ensure both our horses and riders stay safe and comfortable during lessons. Here’s what you need to know:

✅ Horses are being washed down between lessons multiple times a day to keep them cool
✅ We’re making the most of our indoor school, which has two open sides for a lovely breeze and plenty of shade
✅ Lessons are being adapted to suit the heat, with extra breaks and shorter sessions where needed
✅ We may adjust lesson times during particularly hot periods – if this applies to you, we’ll be in touch directly

Please remember:
🌞 Wear suncream before your lesson
🧢 Wear a hat when you’re not riding
🚫 Shoulders must still be covered when riding – even in the heat, this is for your safety
💧 Bring a drink to stay hydrated

Thanks for working with us to keep everyone cool and comfortable – both two-legged and four-legged! 🐴💦
