  • It's time for another eventing vlog, and today it's all about Wilma! After a not-so-confident run at out first 80cm earlier in the year, I was really pleased to be stepping her back up and feeling much more ready for it at Waverton House.
    Although our final score didn’t quite reflect the effort, it was a fantastic day out for Wilma with loads of positive takeaways. It’s all part of the journey, and I'm genuinely so excited about Wilma's future. She showed so much promise, and I know her day will come.
    Join us for this eventing adventure, and see how Wilma tackled the course. Despite the challenges (the British summer isn't being kind to us) the progress was evident, and it left me feeling very optimistic about what's to come.
    I hope you enjoy watching, and please don't forget to hit that like button, leave a comment, and subscribe to stay updated with our journey. Your support means the world, and we can’t wait to share more milestones with you!

    An old trick to protect stud holes is pack them with cotton wool wiped round a vaseline tub. Quick and easy to pull out, tap and stud up, no grit or stones to remove. 😊

    Being as old as I am, I really enjoy seeing Hobbit on these trips. Wilma's clearly more relaxed and confident overall, but needs to learn to self-calm (like so many toddlers!) (Not that she toddles.) She's lovely mover. I'm still a bit on the home-bred team, but Wilma is definitely moving forward.

    You could try losing the grackle as there are lots of nerves on the nose which some horses just find too much - but the test was tidy as a whole she is coming along really well

    • @spanglelime
      @spanglelime 16 дней назад

      If I recall correctly, the grakle is used for that very reason. It spreads the pressure out evenly unlike a flash or drop noseband. It's why Jammy was switched from a drop to a grakle. I could be wrong, bur that is my understanding.

    Wilma seems like a lovely and capable horse! It's obvious how hard you've both been working. As an armchair judge, I really got the impression that this was just " one of those rides". Wilma looked to be really trying for you, but just a bit fussy and like she couldn't quite settle herself in. And as you said, you knew you were late on the downward transition at the center line, and were quite self aware about your own performance. I imagine you were working and thinking hard and struggling to find the sweet spot in your ride too. I think you're absolutely right to focus on the positives of this test and shake off the rest. Every one of us has countless rides that go just like this. You already know a flub here and there is not a full representation of our own riding ability or the ability of our horse. Can't wait to see the next one!

I’m pretty sure on wilmas saddle your stirrups r on the wrong side as the tread is pointing down to the front rather than the back encouraging your foot to tip to the floor rather than heels down if ya get what I mean, basically the actual stirrup needs to be switched to the other side!!

    You and Wilma did great, shame about her getting spicy in the dressage but at least it was at the end. I think I have an idea about the announcement, as I did enter myself this year but haven’t heard back from them yet. That’s a hint without giving it away. Missed you again at Solihull with Han the other day. Honestly it’s like a second home to me but always seem to miss the most important days and getting a chance to meet yourself and others I follow. Anyway hope you get better soon xx hope the sad news isn’t to bad. (Arrie)?
