Another Good Day at the Office.

Kingsbarn 6th November




Ruby Shy and Laguna Flame had another day out at Kingsbarn on 6th November. It was a case of bad luck with four-fault-itis for much of the day. Ruby did get 4th in the British Novice, having gone clear in the first round, only to have four faults in the jump-off.

Another Successful Day

We decided to jump all three BSJA registered horses at SNEC yesterday. Carousel Dreaming's registration had just come through the day before. We hadn't expected the show to be so busy and there were 40 in her 80cm class, 16 going through to the jump-off, including her. She had a nice first round, despite the scary fillers being in the jumps. She was 10th to go and Leanne was instructed where to turn. Blow me down, she won it by 2 seconds! Not to be outdone, Ruby Shy won the 90cm Amateur Qualifier by over 5 seconds and Laguna Flame was 2nd in the British Novice and 3rd in the 1m Open.

Carousel Does it Again

Off we went to Howe Country Centre on Saturday to give Carousel Dreaming a bit of experience. Ruby Shy went too to keep her ticking over. Carousel got third in her first class before winning her second. Ruby, not to be outdone, won both of hers. All in all, a grand day out.

Another winner makes her debut!

Carousel Dreaming (TP Starbuck x Silverfrost Fantasia), a home bred mare, has now started her performance career in some style by winning her class this week. She jumped a couple of lovely rounds and won in a 3 horse jump-off. Ruby Shy, not to be outdone, won a first and a second in her classes. Carousel has lots of potential and gives us another one to take out on the circuit. She's still a baby so we won't rush her, but what a promising start!

Another BSJA success

Ruby Shy took 2nd in the British Novice class at SNEC yesterday, with a lovely double clear. She was top of the leaderboard for a long time, but was just pipped near the end. She seems to be back in the groove.

Ruby Shy wins.

Last night at the Scottish National Equestrian Centre, Ruby Shy returned from a few weeks off by winning the 95cm class with a double clear. We took her along just to get her going again so didn't expect she would win, never mind in such style.
