Nina and her team really do put on a fantastic show we absolutely love going! I just wish they could run more! 🤩
Dime Bar owned by the Dime Bar Syndicate had two great rounds in the 3* 1.50m World Ranking classes to set him up for this week’s The Hickstead Derby!
We did manage to qualify for the Grand Prix we decided to save his legs and set him up for Hickstead instead. We jumped some seriously big tracks which definitely kept us both on our toes!!
Our amazing Johan-Some (YoYo) owned by Linda Allen really is enjoying his new career! He WON the Eventers’ Grand Prix and then was placed the next day in a 3* 1.40m! What a horse - he is a complete freak of nature and I am absolutely loving being back in his saddle!!
Klent Spot On owned by Shirley Light at the BRENDON STUD is really starting to show just how talented he is with a clear and placing everyday in the 1.30m. He’s really consolidating at this level and it won’t be long before he steps up!
My brand new ride, 7yo Warrior Special owned by Nadia AL - Mutawa, was also absolutely brilliant. We have gelled so quickly! He was also clear everyday and we really went for it in the 7yo Grand Prix final but he just touched the last fence in what was a very fast time! You win some, you lose some! I have no doubts whatsoever that he will be super competitive in the very near future!
I’m so grateful to all my team and my owners and so excited to be building a small but perfectly formed string of “proper” jumpers to go with my world class Event horses!
Busy busy!
Now onto Hickstead! Wish us luck! 🖤
Such a great day at South Of England show yesterday!
First time competing there as a showjumper since I can’t remember!
Johansome owned by the most loyal and patient owner Linda Allan has turned his twinkle toes so beautifully to his second career, WINNING the British Horse Feeds Speedi-Beet Horse of the Year Show Grade C Qualifier, in very good company, earning him a ticket to HOYS!
I have always loved this horse so much and was bitterly upset when he got his injury and our olympic dream gone, but these things happen and my god we are going go have fun with him in this sport instead.
I'm also really pleased for the Brendon Stud and their lovely stallion, Klent Spot On who was third in the class, also earning us a HOYS ticket!

Thank you to Gary Stevens for grooming this time!!
Thanks to ClipMyHorse.TV for the video!
The star of the show was Envoy Merelsnest Z (Dime Bar) who won the 1.45 GP on Monday, having already won the 1.40 on Saturday!
We adore him and I’m so lucky to have the opportunity to ride him. Thank you to the Dime Syndicate and Shirley Light. In 2nd place in Saturday's 1.40 was the Brendon Stud's Pandito Van't Merelsnest (WiFi) he’s been away competing and winning with the amazing Richard Howley so I was very anxious to try and do him justice. Phew 😮💨 good boy!!
RSH Monbeg Marshal (Basil) - who is for sale - came 3rd in the 1.30 on Saturday, and 2nd in the 1.40 on Sunday!
The Brendon Stud's Ashent Go Ballistic (Azure) was 4th in the Newcomers on Sunday, with Klent Spot On (Kung Fu) coming 5th in the Foxhunter, and then 3rd in Monday's Foxhunter.
WiFi won the 1.40 on Sunday with Basil coming 2nd!
It was great to have Johan Some back in the showjumping arena, with a lovely double clear in the 1.30. 💙💙 💙💙 💙💙
