A good weekend with all three horses doing very nice double clears..............in the sun!

This weekend was also interspersed with celebrations for my 30th Birthday -  It was lovely, with no actual competing to do on the Saturday, that we were able to get off site and go to the Beach.

Ballycoog Breaker Boy (4*S) did a good test but we fluffed a change which was costly as they are double points in that test, but the rest of his work was good. He then did a great show jumping round and accurate cross country round which was planned to have some time penalties.

The Partner (4*) did a good test for him and great to have his show jumping back on form following  Thoresby and he just felt mega on the cross country track. 

Camee de Muze's dressage didn't go according to plan - this was his first stay away and he was a touch over excited. However, he more than made up for it with his excellent jumping both sj and xc. 

Also, Well done to Marianna Sawyer, who completed her first 3* with a great XC round.

Next outing at Kelsall with the youngsters and then 7 rides at Cirencester over the following weekend. 

A big thank you to Hannah Cole for the fab photos as always.

Insight: 

William had 2022 out as he had a stable injury - however disappointing this was at the time, he has definitely physically benefited.  He is stronger than he has ever been and we feel our patience is paying off. 

Purchased as a 4 year old, he has been  very successful ever since.  During the winter following his 5 year old season, with time off, he grew a huge amount. This then followed a few months off as he pulled his hind muscles getting cast in the stable.  This lead to a late start to his 6 year old season which actually was a blessing in disguise, as it gave him a chance to adjust to his physical changes. As he is a tall horse we are taking time with him as he still has more strength to develop. Having been a quiet gentle giant as a 5 year old he turned into a demanding teenager as a 6 and 7 year old and is never happier than when he is working.  He really enjoys the challenges of Eventing and seems to like the big stage.

The Partner  - 4*S


The Partner (Conquer) is part of an Experience Syndicate for £95 per year - This is run by Event Horse Owners Syndicate.  For more information please contact:

https://www.eventhorseownerssyndicate.co.uk/buy-a-share/the-partner/

Conquer is bred to show jump and we bought him as a 6 year old.  He likes his own space and given the choice wouldn’t have anyone in the next door stable. He is a sensitive character .  His confidence improved hugely over the years and this shows in his results and achievements.  

When away at big competitions we have to be one step ahead of him in how to keep him relaxed. He is a machine cross country. Where errors occurred they were not his doing.   He had a very good first half of 2022 finishing at Bramham 4*L with a good dressage, double clear with time faults keeping him out of the prizes.  We then gave him the rest of the year off as he had a small injury but he is back out in 2023 starting with a 7th in the Lincoln OI.

The Partner showing his SJ is back on form.


A very exciting horse that joined Will Rawlin Eventing in June 2023 having been beautifully produced by Lauren Innes. 

We are very much looking forward to seeing what we can achieve together.  He is currently running at Intermediate/3* with a successful double clear at the 7 year old Championships at Cornbury International 2023.  2024 will be spent consolidating this and started with a good solid run at Oasby where he finished 6th in the I.

Caroline, who was based with me in 2022 has given this wonderful interview with Julia Buitenhuis from USA Publication "Practical Horseman".

In the article Caroline (who won a gold medal at the 2023 Pan American Games) stresses that equestrians can achieve balance between their emotions and their goals.

In this day and age, with social license and horse welfare, it really puts across how important it is to love the horses.

Caroline Pamukcu: “You Can Do Both”

Classicals Eurostar (Casper) and Class Affair (Socks) made the trip to Norfolk to compete in the CCI-S 4* at the weekend.

Both horses went well in the dressage phase, with scores in the 30s, albeit a slightly disappointing score for Socks, before jumping double clears in the showjumping and cross country phases, finishing with minor time faults in the cross country.  

You can see all three phases from both horses in the videos below.
