ALLERTON PARK INTERMEDIATE NOVICE WITH JUNON


A good dressage on 33.6, which could have been even better with doing the 1st shoulder-in! A good show-jumping with 1 down but pleased with Junon really and a clear cross country!

Shiva 1st Arena Eventing

Shiva, 5-year-old dutch warmblood, is going very well. A bit like Bertie he can get a bit strong, so had the same aim : going round the course in a steady rythm.

Bertie 1st Arena Eventing at Kelsall Hill

Really pleased with Bertie, 5-year-old Irish Sport Horse, on his first arena eventing, 80 cm. The aim was to jump everything on the first attempt and keep him in a quite steady rythm as he can get strong.

BERTIE : First grid

Here Bertie, rising 5 year-old ISH, is working on poles and then introduced to a grid. He's doing very well even if he still can get very strong on his left rein. He jumps the grid very confidently and easily, Sue (the owner) and I were very pleased with him!

KELSALL HILL OPEN NOVICE WITH JUNON

After a quite good dressage on 35, a good show jumping with two unlucky down but I was really pleased with Junon and a clear cross country, again very pleased even if I'm losing sometimes a bit too much time to set up!

Start of the season for Junon with an "easy" run for confidence and adjustments, allowing to check we've done our homework during the winter! Good dressage at 26.5, and double clear making sure it's tidy even if we've got time penalties.

ALL THE HORSES I WORK WITH AT THE MOMENT 2011-2012

First of all, obviously my own mare, JUNON DE GRAMONT, Selle-Français (almost english thoroughbred). I produced her from a 6-year-old to now (14-year-old rising 15) and we've reached Intermediate and One Star levels in Eventing, placed evenly.



My new youngster SHIVA, 4-year-old, rising 5 KWPN. I bought him when he was just baked a month ago and I plan to produce him as an eventer. He's learning quickly, has got good paces and a good jump.




BREEZE, 5-year-old, rising 6 ISH. I started schooling her for her owner last year, she was very green, just backed. She's now well established in the flat work, the jumping is improving as well. I ride her a few times a week and I also teach her owner with her.




ROSIE, a very sharp and forward Irish Sport Horse mare, 10 years old. She is a talented horse but quite complicated. 



BOWEN, 15-year-old, rising 16 Trotter/Thoroughbred/Warmblood, he's going back to work after an injury and working well on the flat. I school him a few times a week for his owner.




RED, 7-year-old chestnut Fresian, I started schooling him a month ago for his owner. He's working well on the flat and jumps well too.




MACSENS is a lovely 12-year-old mare, who can be a bit stiff and above the bit. I ride her before teaching her owner with her, that helps to keep her more easily in a proper shape and outline. They have both, horse and rider, improved a lot on the flat and jumping!



DIAMOND , 4-year-old, rising 5, thoroughbred, has raced and is being retrained. I school her and teach her owner with her.




SAHARA, 5-year-old, ISH mare, has been rescued and is being retrained. I school her and teach her owner, they can now do some flat work safely and hacking out happily.




JACK, 3-year-old thoroughbred, I backed him and he's now starting the work with his owner.





PIP, shire crossed fresian pony, 7 years old, who needed being schooled and improve the flat work as he had mainly hacked and hunt until I started working for his owner. He has improved a lot on the flat and his owner also jumps with him now.


SCRUFFY, 4-year-old, rising 5 welsh section C pony, I ride him and teach his owner with him.






And my last two, who were my first two to ride professionnaly in England actually, are KATO, a 12 year-old cob who was very stiff when I started to ride him four years ago and didn't know anything, can now do shouders-in, leg yields, counter canter etc...
BENNIE, a nice 7-year-old cob with a bit more blood than Kato, arrived when he was just broken as a 4-year-old. I produced him and he can do the same as Kato and now jumps as well up to 1 meter. He's now rising 8 years old.
