Past and the present.

While I've always shown each ribbon when it's won, I've spent most of my life believing (being told) that displaying them would be a self-indulgent and full of my own importance move. And that people would target me if I looked too successfull.

Drilled into me from a young age that even now it's taken me days to share this picture.

But I am extremely proud.
Each ribbon represents hours of exercise, education, feed, treatments, grooming, love, travel and money. These are from many different horses who all had to go through the same routine and a few good prayers to throw down the goods on the day.

I'm also still discovering more, like my National Title sashes which were boxed away for so long I kind of forgot them.

So if you see me flashing my awards over and over, just know I'm making up for lost time. And I no longer care if I look 'up myself', cause I am that good and I'm owning it.

We Won! 🎉🥇🎊
2026 Combined Training 60cm round 1
What a beast. He absolutely fired on all fours, scoring a respectable 68.44% dressage under the watchful eye of Margaret Warwick, very chuffed.
Showjumping plan was steady and clear, at least that's how I walked the course..... Jaspar thinks he's an F1 machine & I guess I'm just a rev head at heart cause we were flying 💙

So here we are with our blue ribbon and a bridle bag, contemplating how we're going to dial it back for next week's dressage comp 🤷‍♀️

I have missed that flying feeling & I'm so proud of my old man

Biggest love goes to my super hubby - hitching, driving, filming and cheering me through each class & home team Carol Derks and Abby Giles for child minding and horse care.

Thank you to the committee, so organised and helpful and to our judges (awaiting names) for your time and effort.

2 days at the
Equestrian In The Vines dressage competition with placings in all 4 tests!

Day 1 - 2nd 76% & 5th 71.4%
Day 2 - 6th 62.2% & 6th 66.07% but then was bumped up to 5th in one class after a recount, didn't change the ribbon as we were already on our way home.

Thank you to firstly the event organisers & volunteers, finally a rival for EA but with the atmosphere of kindness & support competition is missing these days.
Of course the wonderfully dedicated judges, their expertise & their years of experience - Terry Daniel, Bonnie Holstein & Margaret Warwick.
