I have been going through a real rubbish time in life for the past few months, yesterday as I got home from work after a bad day, my other half volunteered himself to come and take some pictures of me and my ex racer during 'golden hour'. He is a camera novice but is somehow brilliant at getting...

Ready to get slated for this with regards to the showing world...haha:D I will thread for County + showing, however these images are from local shows where I have used my trick, I also do this for dressage ;) Buy bun pins. They are like wide 'bobby pins'. Plait down as normal and then fold/roll...

I’ve watched his races on replay if that counts :D! It really does make me proud to remember the life he had before me in a completely different world. We are a new partnership I have only owned him for coming up to 4 months but I love him to pieces he is the kindest and most gentle giant! Oh...

haha!! Love mine too, I was having the exact same issue! Luckily he got a new phone and hasn’t bothered to re download the app so I can get away with anything now ?

you are right, I did try and edit my post but cannot ?! A sharer she is!

I am incredibly lucky. I’ve never loaned out before but the world works in funny ways and this was meant to be. I let him go to her for 3 days a week and reduced myself to 4 days for 10 months before I bought my other horse. It killed me not seeing him everyday but knowning that he is making her...

haha, there is definitely a variety of TBs some fizzy and some donkeys! :) I have to agree, they really are so special. Thank you so much, we are getting on very well. I really cannot fault him! Thank you so much ? Thank you very much! My fiancé is so brilliant with the camera. Thank you...

I have an amazing loaner, I wasn’t looking for a loaner but when a family friend said they were looking for a horse for their teenage daughter, Rocky was everything and more that they wanted. I tossed and turned over the thought of loaning him out having never done it before and owning him for...

thank you so much ? Thank you ? I’d never take them for granted but sometimes I just stop and look at the and think you’re bloody lovely ?? Thank you Palo! Couldn’t agree more ? I really would be lost without them. Such wonderful animals that I am eternally grateful to have in my life...

Thank you ever so much he is very nice to look at and the kindest soul! Thank you TM! He sure is :-) how are you getting on with your lad? X

Do you ever look at your horses and think god I’m lucky… Had such an amazing ride on my boys this morning. Feeling so grateful and driving home with a smug grin on my face ? Have a lovely weekend all!

3 month check in (April - July) and looking much chunkier :) very happy with our progress so far! some recent pictures inc first beach trip:cool:

Trippy’s first beach trip was a success:) After a bit of genuine confusion as to what to do with himself when we first got onto the beach, he settled and gave me some beautiful work :D It was so lovely to open him up and have a blast!! As always his breaks were 100% and he didn’t get wound up or...

Tha very true, they aren’t for everyone but I think that’s also down to people not wanting to put the work and time into ‘retraining’. My partner did think all ex racers were mental based on the select few he had seen at the yard over the years :D But funnily enough, Trippy is SO kind natured...

Thank you! Brilliantly, he’s been an absolute super star. He has such a lovely horizontal nature which was one of the big green ticks for me when buying. He’s a full up 16.3 but thinks he’s a tiny pony :D We have mostly hacked, loads of hills here so have been building muscle and fitness. Now...
