Hi, welcome to Yard Talk,

This month’s news we talk about who is going out to the sunshine and the plan of action put in place to get them there!

It has been a testing couple of months already with all the snow hampering our progress - we are really lucky to have the new gallops in - they have revolutionised our training methods! While others were dealing with frozen arena's - we were able to still work the horses and blow of some steam.

We have been out a lot - hitting both the dressage and jumping circuits, all with promising results. Chilli has won three Advanced Mediums and Akela and Penguin Ice clearing up the Novice and Elementary sections. Chapel Amble has become a real dressage diva and is practically floating around the ring - if only she could keep her mind on the job, and Rocket Science is really starting to come into his own with Badminton approaching.

Nick has been really busy this month also with his 'Ride Like a Pro' Clinics, they seem to be a big hit, so all systems are go and everyone is poised and ready to hit the sun out in Portugal.
