What a weekend at Ballarat International Horse Trials
The babies having their second go at 80cm and all coming home with ribbons!
Kohinoor (OTT) and ES Adele (5yo and only her second time eventing) both finishing on their dressage score- Kohinoor 5th and ES Adele 6th.
Sloane Square (5yo) only adding a rail to her dressage score finishing 6th also!
Milla de CaDi winning the 2* after dressage and showjumping (1 of only 2 showjumping rounds that were clear and in time) however challenging conditions ⛈️ and stepping up to a new level proved to be a little much and turned the crosscountry into a training round. Still so happy with her and can’t wait until we get all 3 phases up to where we want them.

We are so lucky to have such a awesome team that love and care for all the horses as much as I do🫶
