Team First In Boekelo
2026 truly is a year full of wins for Gemma. Following big wins at Burghley, Scone and Hickstead, Gemma headed to Boekelo with team GB for the prestigious CCIO4*-NC-L. Gemma and Chilli Morning IV were sat in first place following day one. They followed this with two lovely rounds, helping team GB to maintain the top spot overall.
A huge well done to team mates Yasmin Ingham, Katie Magee and Kirsty Chabert, who all put in stellar performances. Go Team!
Gemma And Chilli Knight Win Burghley Horse Trials!
The 2026 Defender Burghley Horse Trials could not have gone better for Gemma and Chilli Knight. The pair took the lead right from the start, with a winning dressage score of 29.6. They followed that with a faultless cross-country round, on a very big, very technical course. Going into phase three, Gemma and Chilli Knight had four fences in hand! They held their nerve and rode a consistent, careful round to maintain the top spot!
We're thrilled to have Gemma as an Equimi ambassador. This week she's demonstrated just how much hard work pays off - what a legend!
We did a Millstreet double!
Wow what an absolutely crazy time we are having 🤩
Firstly before anything else I want to say thank you to my incredible team. Without doubt, their unbelievable ability to leave no stone unturned together with their absolute dedication to our horses is the key to this run of success.
A super quick turnaround from Bicton at the beginning of last week to leave for Millstreet with a VERY full truck!
I knew I was going to Ireland with pretty good fire power and horses that were on form but never did I dream of doing a double!
Cooley Park Muze owned by the Rex Syndicate was unbelievable, finishing with a showjump in hand to take the win in the 3*L.
Chilli’s Jester owned by Chris and Lisa Stone and Chris and Clare Mathias was also brilliant, I just had to take a long route XC due to being a little green at the beginning of the course, but he grew in confidence and finished brilliantly, coming out on the last day and giving every showjump at least a foot to finish 9th.
Both Rex and Jester are seriously exciting horses for the future.
Flash Cooley owned by Pru Dawes lead the 4*L convincingly from start to finish to take the win, putting to bed the stupid fence we had down that cost us the win 2 years ago! What a horse he is, I absolutely adore him, he always gives his all and is just such a darling little boy.
Chilli Morning IV (the current 7yr old World Champ) owned by Chris and Lisa Stone was tackling his first 4* S. He was super if a little green in the dressage and showjumping but sadly just didn’t understand the new sunken road on the XC. I did eventually manage to persuade him to pop down it and made a huge fuss of him for doing so, but we got the big E. I’m not bothered he’s a baby and he will learn - he’s so intelligent that next time he will believe me that it’s ok!
Long drive home! Huge love for Gaz for driving! 😴
Got home at 7.00AM straight onto Chilli King for a flat work session and then onto Felbridge for second rounds and Grand Prix!
Both Brendon Stud boys jumped mega but no HOYs tickets that day!
BUT our amazing Dime Bar owned by the Dime Syndicate only went and WON the Grand Prix - jumping unbelievably and beating some VERY good combinations! Seriously chuffed with that!
We headed home for some sleep 😴and to re pack (again) and we’re now on our way to Bramham!
