November 2010
On a very chilly November day, we attend a clinic run by the British Dressage Regional trainers club with David Hunt, It was sub zero all day!, so a big thank you to all who organised it and braved the weather.
It was a great help to me to have an expert eye watching us, and gave me some very useful tips and excercises which i can use to continue on our path towards grand prix.

Timmy wins 2 Advanced medium classes with 64+% and 65+% and qualifies for the Winter regionals. Having only been out competing 3 times this year due to lack of transport!, we have to hire a bigger box when we take him out as he has grown too big for our lorry!
This winters training has been going well and Timmy competed in and won his first Medium test at The college Keysoe in January 2010.
2009 he won his first Elementary and qualified for the Shearwater 6yrs young horse class at Hartpury festival of dressage.
