THE BEST KIND OF EVENT | Eventing Vlog | new event Kingston Maurward

Today Jancis and Lucy head off to a brand new event in Dorset - Kingston Maurward. It is the most wonderful location and the kind of eventing we all love doing at a parkland event in front of a beautiful house.
This is Insey's last run for a while and after the drama on cross country of last week hoping for a low level drama day.
Marginal gains is about constantly improving little bits and hopefully you will see this in action especially if you compare how the season has gone on.
Come with us as we go to this lovely new event and add it to your diaries for next year.

What a really nice course!!! New fences and they used the terrain well. Fingers crossed that this new event becomes permanent.

[@theeventingjourney232]

Apparently it took them ages to get approval from BE to run. I thought it was wonderful - beautiful and old parkland. Doesn’t get better.

Was there as a spectator and admired 'White Socks' ! Glad you had a lovely day, super horse. All the best for the future with her.

[@theeventingjourney232]

Thanks - they take quite a lot of product to keep white!

Very well done. Lovely event. Great performance and Insey looked stunning.

[@theeventingjourney232]

It was an amazing event. I really hope they put a Novice and 1* there

[@equestrianmelissaeventing]

Good on you for picking up the litter, real shame people left it. Great event, all phases brilliant again. I really enjoy watching her dressage...I usually end up skipping half a test but I always watch all of hers 🥰

[@theeventingjourney232]

I actually find it really helpful writing up the scores as I edit as really makes me think about how I can improve things.

[@juliecarmody6773]

Fabulous & what an amazing event the grounds are fantastic. A big pat on the back for the organisers it’s not easy setting up a new event A great job done all round 🤩

[@theeventingjourney232]

I have made sure I have fed back how amazing it was via BE feedback form. We do tend to moan rather than thank people for setting up an amazing event. So much money is spent on a start up in a parkland like this. Xc jumps would have been £30k easily.

Lovely dressage test, and a well deserved score!
Incey looked amazing on the cross country 💖

[@theeventingjourney232]

She is a dream xc to ride. Next to work on her jumping into water phobia so we can move up to novice.

[@bd24920]

Well done, you two looked amazing!

[@theeventingjourney232]

Thanks - I was so happy with her. Now on a well earned rest for a week.

[@dianehookham]

Well done, awesome day, she did well

[@theeventingjourney232]

Thank you she is a fantastic horse with so much ability

[@hannesofie6071]

Beautiful venue!!! 😍😍 You looked very confident and good going the whole way around!!! To bad about that one fence. Hope you are pleased!!! ❤❤

[@theeventingjourney232]

I am pleased. She isn’t the easiest sometimes and we have had a tricky start to season but wonderful to have her being so consistent

[@natalievannet]

Very unlucky rail! You really did a great job! 🎉

[@theeventingjourney232]

It was - could have pushed and think it would have been same result

[@lizgarland2241]

[@theeventingjourney232]

[@marylauder3374]

Well done.

[@theeventingjourney232]

Thanks

[@melodyjamesz]

I think you need to smarten yourself up! Also why on earth don't you take the plaits out before XC? Sloppy mess.!!

[@theeventingjourney232]

Wow, been called many things over the years but never a sloppy mess! 🤣I don't take plaits out as it looks messy 😄
