Well Done Anthony!!

Anthony went to West Wilts on Thursday and in the Advanced Medium qualifier he got 66.9% and won it, so I think that means that he has qualified for the Summer Regionals in just 2 outings. He then went on to do his first ever PSG, and won that too! It was a PYO class and I was thrilled that he managed everything in the test. Judged by Trish Gardiner, she said he looked very enthusiastic!

So a very successful return to competition, and much more to come.

Boys are Back In Town!

After a long gap, both Anthony and Toro are very much back in business!! Toro went out for the first time in over a year, to Hartpury where he was placed 2nd and 3rd in 2 Advanced Mediums. He then followed this up with a trip to Burrows Court where he had a very convincing win in the Advanced Medium qualifier on 69% and then he was placed 2nd in the PYO Prix St Georges on 66.5%. He felt really soft and willing throughout, I was delighted with him and he was not as tense as expected.

Anthony went to Abbey and won one Advanced Medium on 66.5%, then was placed 4th in the qualifier on 63%. Again I was delighted, the weather conditions were dreadful, he was listening and trying all the time. Tomorrow (Thurs 17th Feb) he goes to West wilts to try his very first PSG. Having had him since he was 4 years old, this is a BIG DAY!!

Anthony can be seen at two stallion shows this year : at the South west Equine and Game Fair at the Royal Bath and West Showground on Sat 12 March and again at West Wilts EC on Sat 19 March at the Willesley Equine Stallion Parade.
