Fifi was the only British bred horse to be selected for the World Dressage Breeding Championships in Ermelo in August 2018. This was a massive ask for a horse that has only been under saddle properly for 18 months, and was competing against established international riders and horses of the highest level who were riding horses that had been under saddle and competing at big shows for twice as long. She had a very nice write up by Eurodressage and great comments were given by thejudges at the end of the tests. Tension spoiled the marks, but this was really the only detraction in a test that showed her promise for the future and great potential for the highest levels and the grandest of arenas. We could not have been more impressed nor more proud of the brave combination of Fifi (Fantasia) and Sara Gallop.[...]

The fabulous Daisy won her first ever show yesterday with the talented Ashley Jenkins on board. She was impeccably well behaved, beautifully presented and ridden, and was a superstar in the test, braving rain and wind in the test, and lots of large and sometimes unwieldy horses in the warm up. We could not have been more pleased with her. She is now qualified for the finals at Hartpury later this Summer but is also for sale to suitable partners. Many thanks Ashley.[...]
