The Duke of Bartle Wins again
03 July 2008

Well the Duke of Bartle won again at Eridge. If you haven't been to Eridge horse trials, I strongly suggest you compete there next year. Its a stunning course with spectacular spectator viewing. However Eridge is not for the faint hearted, the Intro course requires gutsy riding, and the novice and Pre novice need a strong and determined rhythmic line to make it inside the time!

Brendon Hill Sharp Talk managed 11th in the OPN, just missing out on a place because she tipped a rail in the show jumping.

Jays Silver Spirit is out of action due to a virus, he seemed extremely unwilling to jump at west wilts, it was most unlike him, turns out he was very ill, luckily we immed had his blood tested after his poor event and he is now on medication and getting better fast, but wont make it back til the end of the season.

Iping Cross country clinic took place today and went really well. Everyone who came seemed to enjoy themselves and take away some a little more of the vital confidence needed to go strongly clear cross country.

My schoolmaster is sadly still lame, he has serious inflammation of his suspensory. I am about to try cold laser treatments, but it seems only time will heal. He is the gentlest kindest horse I know, and I am fighting to do everything I know to get him right, if hes not better by october, then i have to consider surgery which is a risky strategy, that i would rather avoid.

July is a very busy month, I will be at Brightling, Iping and Mattingley horse trials, and have taken on photographing the courses for Equineaffairs.com so that will make me extra fit, walking and cataloguing each jump at all levels ;-0
