Finally got round to scanning pics of my 4yo at the PAVO champs last year, she was joint 6th and as we didn't know what she'd do with the mud we were v proud!! Amazing to see your first homebred baby all grown up!!

She also came in from teh field today for the first time since then and i rode her - she was backed and competed away from home last year so has never been ridden at home and hardly ever by me so after lots of bucking and hooleying about the lunge was v pleased how well she behaved when i got on!! Not into rodeo rides!!

Yes she's a good little jumper - got all her Brit Nov double clears last year bless her! She's by a TB stallion called Shipley Diamond, out of our Irish Sports Horse mare who is by Kildalton Gold so has irish SJ lines.

Her 3yo or no 4 now brother by Mill Law is the one who "should" do the job but she seems to be giving him a run for his money. He'll have a hard act to follow!
 
gorg lil mare! are you bringing her on to sell or keep? shes looks a nice size,i only go for little ones,mines only just over 15.1 but wud jump anything given half the chance!!
I bred the 5 yr old winner(pavo)ridden by Sam Penn,off to london sat eve to get my breeders award,very exciting,no idea what i win?
 
That's excellent! There was so much to look at in that show-jumping arena, thought the 4yo's might have melt-down but yours looks cool as a cucumber! Will you ride her this year or will she go back to Emily?
 
She looks fantastic, like butter wouldn't melt in the last photo!

The poor 4 year olds got the very worst of the weather and I did feel for them but yours was (and still is!) obviously a star.
 
Gorgeous girly, looks hugely talented! Fingers crossed for a very successful first "proper" yeah eventing

Thank you all, getting shoes tomorrow so can start happy hacking, its all v strange riding her at home as she's never been here! She'll go back to Emilie to start the season and then either i'll take over or we'll sell depending on how things go and how my 4yo goes as well!!

We're aiming to start at Oasby Intro then go PN at Lincoln but who knows! She's an opionated lady we'll have to see waht she thinks!!
