2020 roundup 👀

I haven’t got round to doing a New Year post yet on here as been having some downtime but seeing as this is the last day of my holiday I thought it was about time...2020 was a really odd year but still lots of lovely things to come from it...

Ross - Ross competed his first proper season at BE stepping up from 80 to 90 and finishing with his best ever score on his last run of the year at Alnwick Ford. He also started affiliated dressage with BD and has qualified for the Winter Area Festival for both Prelim and Novice. On top of all that we managed to get out to some riding club events/camp and made a few new great friends along the way ( 🙋🏽‍♀️).

Atlas - this was Atty’s first season under saddle. We attended our first dressage show and some unaffiliated jumping. He also managed to win some red rosettes along the way. I’m so proud of how he’s coming along - he’s such a special horse.

Apollo and Arlo - 2020 brought with it the arrival of Apollo and Arlo. They brought so much joy even through some hard times. They also managed to both score gold premiums at the futurity. Excited for both of their futures!

All in all 2020 wasn’t a total write off but I’m hoping we’ll have more of a ‘normal’ year in 2021. I’m going to try and do a lot of training over the rest of winter and early spring to try and set the horses up nicely for the 2021 season (hoping my dressage and sj lessons won’t be cancelled due to the snow/ice 🤞🏼). Wishing all of you a great 2021 whether that be out competing or just enjoying your horses at home 🥰

A very wet day in Edinburgh today and some very soggy horses ☔️ Was having some regrets over not entering Kirrie BE but after I’ve seen the weather today I’m glad I decided not to! I hope all our friends competing there today had a good day out despite the tragic weather! That’s the mares and foals in for the night to avoid the worst of the rain 💦
