Fürst Skyfall our 4yr old KWPN gelding at his first BD show at Felbridge today. So pleased with how the boy was today, warmed up nicely and made a good effort in his tests. A bit wobbly and a few poo breaks 💩 effecting his scores 64% 66% but we love this boy he is a dude.😆

Futurity day at Catherston stud for 2 year old Rosalío bred by Yeguada Pell , aka “Bruce” , he behaved impeccably, the format is very different to the Spanish showing but he still showed himself well and gained a 9 and 9.5 from the vet for his conformation and condition. Then onto the movement assessment where he gained between 8.25 and 8.75 for his paces giving him overall 8.6 and a Gold Premium 🙌🏻
Was also lovely to bump into Katy Holder -vale who was part of the assessment team , I did my work experience for Katy when I was 14 and then worked for her several years later about 28 years ago 😳 , and I have very fond memory’s of my time at Witcham house farm , where does the time go ? 🤦🏼‍♀️

Valentina PPD our 10 yr old PRE mare by Deseado CCV out of Victoriosa P in the MCI Flamenca. First run through this test at a show for Val and I thought she did really well, a bit wobbly in places as she is still quite green in competition but trying hard to please, she came 5th with 64%😀

Aragorn de Esperanza owned by Teressa Van der Kloot at the IPS show in the MCI Lusitana ( psg FSM) Aragorn is always a good lad at shows, this was our first go at this level with the music so wasn’t as polished as I would have liked but we managed 63% with lots of room for improvement and he came 1st in the advanced section.😀
