What a super couple of weeks it has been for Brenda Reddy’s BamBam, not only has he qualified for the regionals at Advanced Medium Freestyle, he also finished an extremely credible 4th place in the British Dressage Small Tour Championships held at Houghton Hall. What a super end to a fantastic year.
Another super result today with Maria Dent’s Nazareno Vicon. Rob and Nasa made the trip to the British Dressage PRE Championships held at Keysoe EC. I am very happy to report that Nazareno came home crowned the Elementary Champion!!!!
It was great to catch up with the guys from Dressage Anywhere, on training with Carl Hester and gaining sponsorship with Equine Essentials Direct. Check out the article here:Â http://ow.ly/DmaQ305uNu9
Another super morning competing, this time at Windmill Farm. Both horses were super super, what stars they both were… Maria Dent’s Nazareno Vicon was certainly flying the Spanish flag taking home two red rosettes; E45 71.37% & E59 72.65%!!! Sanssouci has to settle for second place in both but with fab scores of; E45 69.48% & E59 72.03%!!! That’s both qualified for the winter regionals
Two red rosettes for Maria Dent’s Nazareno Vicon in the Elementarys at Snowball Farm today, E45 70.69% & E59 69.69%. This boy just keeps getting stronger and stronger.. Sanssouci contended her first Elementarys posting two good scores of E45 68.45% & E59 69.07%, some little blips in her tests so over the moon with the scores. Lots of carrots for both horses this evening 🙂 Off again on Wednesday to Windmill Farm to hopefully complete our qualification.
What a busy week it has been here at RWD. Rob and Sanssouci went for training at Carl’s on Wednesday. It was a super session and Cici is really starting to strengthen and take the weight behind. Thumbs up from the master 🙂 Yesterday Rob competed Brenda Reddy’s BamBam and Jennifer Nissen’s DHI Lightening in the Advanced Mediums at a very wet Windmill Farm. Both boys brought home the goods between them getting two 1sts, one 2nd and a 3rd. Some tiny mistakes but that my have been down to the monsoon that was happening at the same time. All qualified for the regionals in one outing, clever ponies..
Rob and the horses had a fantastic couple of days last week at the National Championships. Rob and Kirsty Anthony’s Sanssouci finished 10th in a very hot Novice Gold class. Maria Dent’s Nazareno Vicon put in a fantastic test, also in the Novice Gold. Brenda Reddy’s BamBam was hot, hot, hot in the Medium Gold. The test was very accurate but the atmosphere just got him causing tension that brought the overall mark down. We were over the moon with how well the horses went.
So another year is over for the RWD Summer Dressage Series, kindly sponsored by Equine Essentials Direct, Stuart Equine, Chiltern Vet Physio and Hannah Freeland Photography. The points have been counted and checked and we are very happy to announce that the winner of the 2016 league is: Caroline Fallows!! Huge congratulations to Caroline, second place goes to Tracey Fleming and third, Angela Cremin. We look forward to welcoming everyone to the 2017 series.
Super result today at the Bury Farm Summer High Profile Show today. Brenda Reddy’s BamBam won the Summer PSG Championships!!! We are absolutely over the moon with the result, there are still a couple of areas that I would like to improve on but considering this is was only his 4th run at this level, what a result!!!
What a regionals!!! Maria Dent’s 6yr old Spanish Stallion, Nazareno Vicon has become Regional Champion after winning the Bury Farm Novice Gold regionals on a huge score of 74%!! Not to be outdone Rob and Kirsty Anthony’s Sanssouci and Brenda Reddy’s BamBam also scooped those golden tickets to the Nationals in September. With three horses its going to be a busy week!!!
