Work and Play
Even after a heavy training week, Jackson is still more than up for playing with Wilson. Not sure if it was the smoke in the air from the bushfires or just the fact that these two like acting like two year olds 🙂
Horses
Going Higher
These two just keep getting better and better, initially going right back to basics to really cement Jackson’s training. I’m really looking forward to seeing how the pair of them do out competing this year. Sandy has also progressed really well, although still spooky at pretty much anything, she is …
Getting their jump on
Miss B and Jackson have been working hard the past few weeks and it is showing how much they have improved as a team. Tessa and Wilson are always interested in what’s going on when Miss B is riding, I think they are both bored and would like to join …

Welcome Jackson
Well after what seemed forever looking for a suitable new showjumper for Miss B, this gorgeous Arabian Warmblood hunk has come for a trial from a friend to see how the two of them get along. It was a close contest between Jackson and a stunning young chestnut thoroughbred gelding …
