It’s like coming home getting back on him, everything else fades away it’s just me and him… two hearts beating as one ❤️
It’s been months since I last rode him, I’ve just been so busy but I promised him today that I will find time for us more often.
He gave me 200% as always, neck arched, knees up and marching round like a stallion. In all the years we have been together I don’t think I’ve ever ridden him without a smile on my face.
My best boy, my horse of a lifetime, my Alfie ❤️

Powering round the poles today with Willow 💪 she was very pleased with her little self to be out, we both love our pole parties! She’s feeling incredible right now I think I need to find some dressage to take her to!

A freshly trimmed beard and little leather halter means only one thing…. My long standing followers that followed me and my horses before I set up this page will be pleased to know that yes I am digging out my silly 🎩 collection again and I will be running round like a robot 🤖 with a cheesy grin in the show ring again 🙋🏻‍♀️
We won’t provide quite as much entertainment as his c**t days 🧑‍🩰🤸🤸🧑‍🩰but showing does seem to turn us into a comedy sketch😆
But on a more serious note I have toyed with selling Prince for a couple of years now, he is incredible…….Perfection in miniature 👌 and he takes everything that life (and I) throw at him oh so coolly. I just feel so guilty that such an incredible little pony is just a pet because I know he would make someone so happy and it feels such a waste that he hasn’t got a job.
It’s four years today since I rescued him and his momma Grace when he was only days old and I will tell both of their full stories very soon, I have a few anniversaries to catch up on!
Anyway last year I put him up for sale and had a couple of enquiries both who sounded perfect and both brought me to tears at the thought of letting him go so I took his advert down and buried my head in the sand. I’ve just done the same this year and again I can’t bear it…. So I’m not doing this to myself again, I can’t let him go, I just can’t.
I started him last year and he was lunging and long reining beautifully and ‘parking’ at the block and I sat on him a couple of times but i am 5ft9 and he is 12hh so i just can’t take him further to make him a ridden horse but I can’t let go of him but he needs a job so my only answer is to find the motivation to get back in the show ring with him again so that’s where we are and next Sunday will be our debut for 2026.
Oh gosh he was so excited when I put his little showing halter on yesterday, I had it made to measure for him as a yearling and apparently his tiny little head hasn’t grown at all 🙌
I’m completely out of my comfort zone when it comes to showing but he was born to be in the ring so I am digging deep and embracing it again for him. I can’t wait to see him light up when he gets back in the ring ❤️

I would normally say welcome to the family with a new arrival but once you are part of our family it is for life ❤️ and he has been part of the family for 3 years now so I feel this is more appropriate for him…..

Welcome home my beautiful boy
🤍🖤 Spring House Champion🖤🤍

Today has filled my heart completely ❤️
My first memories of us rescuing him and Foxy and them arriving here and then my last memories of him and Maverick leaving us as gangly yearlings are still so clear in my head and to watch that handsome young man walk off the trailer and see how beautifully he has matured and how he has taken today all in his stride and how grown up he has been about it…… Proud just doesn’t even come close.
I will never be able to thank you enough Pip for everything that you have done for those boys and still are doing for Mav. After everything that those boys and their mums had been through you gave Maverick and Champ the chance to stay best friends through their youngest years which was the most precious gift ❤️
He is an absolute credit to you and all the love and care that you have given him and I can’t find the words to say how much it means to me that you have let him come back to me to start his next chapter.
He most definitely remembered me which brought a massive lump to my throat 🥹 and he has given me so many cuddles and kisses and so much love already.
I was the first person to show him love and he hasn’t forgotten me at all, Which means the world to me.
This is just the start of such an exciting chapter for him and what a great privilege to be the person to start it with him ❤️

Ahhh I’m beyond excited about our new arrival tomorrow!!!! 💕🐎 💕
So those of you that regularly follow my posts will remember a few weeks ago that we took Spice to her forever home to be reunited with her best friend Foxy. When we rescued Foxy and Spice they both had very young foals at foot, Champ and Maverick (who also became best friends). Champ and Maverick found the most wonderful home together and left me as yearlings, I always knew that it might only have been forever for one of them but they would stay together for their young years and I was hoping Pip would end up keeping both but I also completely trusted her to find the other their forever when the time was right. Pip has kept me updated on the boys ever since they left and I have loved watching them grow from a distance.
Fast forward 2 years and Pip messaged me in March to say that she thought it was time that Champ started the search for his next chapter……… well it wasn’t a chance I was going to miss! To have my gorgeous boy home and be the one to start his education! It wasn’t a planned decision but definitely the right decision! But I just needed a couple of months so all my fields were in use so I had the space, the wait has been killing me! But here we are finally, he’s coming home tomorrow!!!! He’s grown so much since he left and looks huge from the photos, I can’t wait to see how much he’s grown in person though!
I dug out all my favourite photos of him from the day that we rescued him and Foxy when he was only days old to the day he left us as a yearling❤️

Thank you so much Livvy Black and Smudge for the fabulous ride round Escrick Park Rideways this morning!
We had the best time in the very best company and a well needed catch up!! We’ve had this booked in for ages but I don’t think we could have planned the weather any better, with a much cooler morning and a welcome breeze! Willow was very pleased to have a new pal and Smudge was a complete gentleman as always ❤️ Willow even had her first little jump XC over some little logs, which she absolutely loved! Shes got a cracking little pop on her, she’s only jumped once before so I was really chuffed with her for being so brave!
