Stuart and Pluto Mio Sydney 3DE
The month of September was a little hectic here with the Sydney International 3DE and Scone CNC, plus the added stress of Jaymee attempting her second 2* event and Karen not being there, as horses needed to be ridden at home that weekend! However she was in very good hands (with her father!) and Jaymee did a great round on King, completing the 2* just out of the placings. I just have to give Horseland a plug for their Euro-Star tails that fit Jaymee superbly and are a very reasonable price for such quality. Stuart managed to come home with a fully intact daughter and a black eye very kindly given to him from one of the young horses slipping over on the flat! Orchard Hill, who has always been in the background as one of our top horses, is also really pulling out some performances with a 4th in the CNC 3*. Going back to the Sydney 3DE, Stuart took Jane and John Pittard’s Pluto Mio in the CCI***. ‘Wow’ what an improvement, second in the dressage, just behind the leader. Excited was an understatement! Clear XC and then two rails show jumping which was a shame, however we still have a bit to work on and the course was a little tight for him with such a scopey enthusiastic jump. We love having him at Tinney Eventing; he has practically stepped into Vettori’s shoes (well almost!) We appear to be collecting white horses and at one stage the yard looked like a Spanish Riding school! P.S. Thanks Horseland (again) for your amazing support of glo white shampoo. Talking of Horseland we are so impressed with their new range in clothing and horse tack! We have fallen in love with their sheep skin lined saddle cloths (plus lots of other products) they are excellent and wash perfectly!
Another white horse - Pluto Mio!
Coming up we have a number of events at Goulburn CIC and Canberra CIC and then the Deloitte Australian International 3DE CCI4* at Adelaide followed by Lakes and Craters CCI. We have some international riders coming from Italy to compete at these events on Vettori and Watermark Grayson and it is very exciting to have international elite riders coming to Australian shores to compete in the big events
