What a fab show hunter day for the first of our Show Hunter days. Some lovely combinations and lots of smiles.

Joan gave lovely feedback to the riders, lots of encouraging Show Hunter learning.

Look forward to next one 20th June.

Just finished clipping some horses and can’t help but admire my handiwork.

Call me if you want your horse to enjoy the benefits of clipping: less sweating, faster drying, easier grooming, and better comfort while working through winter.

When it’s your passion, it never really feels like work 💛
