Yearling prep has now started! At the yard where I am working there is roughly 150 yearlings and we have about 40 to get ready for the Magic Millions sales in January at the Gold Coast.

Farewell My Friend
Yesterday was a tough day, it was my last day with Bubbles before I leave for Australia, I decided to finish the loan early then in my last week or so I could spend time with my friends and family. Going for a sunrise hack has always been on my bucket list, just imaging sitting … Continue reading Farewell My Friend
Just Another Day With Bubbles
The other day me and Bubbles did some bare back schooling for the first time and I cannot express how proud I was of him. He went beautifully and listened to every signal I gave him. We even had our first canter bare back and it was actually a lot easier to sit to. I've … Continue reading Just Another Day With Bubbles
Going Bare Back!
For the past few weeks I haven't been able to ride as much as I would have liked due to the heat wave the UK is experiencing.

The Horse World…
The horse industry is well and truly a completely different world. It can be both a beautiful yet a dark world to be in. I've had a love for horses ever since I could walk. Beautiful creatures. Very underrated and unappreciated in my opinion. I started riding when I was about 6 years old, just … Continue reading The Horse World…
My Saviour
I've found that people tend to either like horses or be terrified of them. I started horse riding when I was about 6 years old and have been riding ever since. I've always been an animal person. I'd much rather be around animals than humans (No offence). I fell in love with horses. Everything about … Continue reading My Saviour
