Isleham - 7 March 2010

Had a good day with Holly yesterday at Isleham, we came 3rd in the Intermediate. 31.8 dressage, one pole down SJ and 14.4 time penalties XC. The pole in the SJ was my fault put in one too many strides and got her too close to the fence.

Duffy had a good dressage 34.5 (4th after dressage) but unfortunately had three poles down a real shame as he has been jumping so well over the winter! Still first event of the season so plenty to improve on!

Next event Twesledown Intermediate with Holly Hot Lips!

I'm also entered into Somerley International CIC** (30-31 March) and Belton Park AU25 in April.

Not sure about you but I'm enjoying the sun too, life with horses is so much easier when it's dry!

WoW Saddle - SEEL Owner Rider 2009 prize

I got my WoW saddle delivered the other day. So pleased with it, the air in the panels is amazing!

Emma, who fitted the saddle, was brilliant and WoW have been fantastic. They were really thorough making sure it fitted perfectly and videoed me riding to keep a check on my position.

The stirrup leathers are great as they are only one single strip so not as bulky as standard leathers.

I've been out jumping in it and Holly is going really well with it. An added bonus is that it was tried on Duffy and it fits him too! Looking forward to trying it out on the XC course at Isleham next weekend!
