Nearly home from day 1 at Allerton Park with the Novice horses… 4 hours sleep til we turn around for tomorrow’s manic day!!! 3 Intermediates and 2 Advanced rounds before lunch!!Today was a great day in the flesh, more so than on paper. Wilf found his first Novice a walk in the park… After a week in the stable after cutting himself, he didn’t get much of a tune up! After the first few fences, he realised Novice was much more fun than 100s, and jumped incredibly well! One tiny mistake Xc at a tiny log which wasn’t where it should be, and the rest of the round was poetry!! Evie posted yet another cool confident clear Xc- this flash little horse is turning into a really cool jumping machine!!! Let’s hop tomorrow goes well for my two first time advanced boys!!! ?
Allerton park sleep deprivation!!

I have ridden horses all my life, and our base is now Vale View Equestrian in Leicestershire, with facilities that are out of this world for producing my lovely horses, and the results are shining through right across the board, showing my horses are settled, happy, and able to work every aspect of their competition needs!

Jess StoreyYard Manager/ Competition GroomJess joined the team as a trainee back in 2020! Apart from a very short stint spreading her wings, she quickly decided that we really were the family she wanted to be a part of!! I hope Jess will be my Jackie Potts, as she treats the whole team as her own family, and keeps the cogs turning smoothly- even during our tough times!!
