Crikey! is she a TB? She's gorgeous!!

Did she come out of racing?

Was told at the weekend one of my lads will never work again [sidebone] so thinking about a working replacement. Maybe I'll toddle over the ascot...

All the very best with her xxx
 
Very proud mummy moment indeed :D Although there have been days I dreaded getting on her... mostly because she reared and bronched and refused to walk forward...We both pulled these faces A LOT!! :(

love the face, mine does that and has to have a cuddle to reassure him life isn't really so bad. Well done you, hope to see some great competition results this year!

She was trained at Nunstainton Stud in Durham after coming over from Ireland at 4 so wasnt hammered too young.

She is Full Irish TB out of Alderbrook so should have a good pop when she stops rushing and starts listening to the big bad ogre mummy on her back :)

I have had her in a Pessoa once of twice a week for about 15 mins a time. I bought her and she had had 4 months off and been on the walker 6 weeks prior to sale s was a blank canvas really. I hunted her in the new year and we did a sponsored ride in april. She wasnt so calm then! :)
 
She had been such a good little pone last night that even hubby had permission to ride her back to the yard (very very anxious mummy walking along side!!)

Just wanted to say thanks again for all the lovely comments. I had a lesson last night and jumped our first 3 part grid and oxer to finish at about 3ft :) I was on such a high!! Roll on XC on Saturday :D
