We are so excited to announce a new member to the KTW Dressage team; Bloomfield Valton.
Bloomfield Valton is a bright young gelding sired by Versace (Vivaldi). This cool character is an amazing talent, with a very sweet temperament. Not yet broken in, we look forward to seeing what this young boy has in-store.
Words can't describe how super super proud, happy and excited I am right now.
Today World Star and I performed our very first Inter II together!!! 
😄😄😄. I love this horse to bits. He is definitely one very special boy. Even with all the odds against him he proves time after time what an amazingly tough horse he is. A massive THANK YOU to the whole team that has helped me get World Star fit, strong and loving this new and exciting phase in his life. Now lots to work on and develop. Exciting times ahead.
Exciting day today as my baby Destano II came home from the breakers. He feels so awesome to ride and such a good boy. Massive Thank you!!! to Brett Peel for doing such a fantastic job breaking him in. Can't wait to get him out and about.
World Star and Flowervale Florenz are loving their new Kingsland Stable Boots!! These boots are fantastic and are great for use in the stable but also will be great for at shows between tests. I have tried a lot of boots over the years and these fit beautifully and take all the stress out of having to bandage legs, which when not done correctly can be quite damaging. The inserts are removable and washable which is great. Thank you Jenny and Kate from Kingsland Equestrian Australia NZ for these awesome boots for my boys.
He's home and fitting in well. Oscar B is the perfect big bro!!! Watch this space!!!
Home safe and sound after a wonderful trip down to the Boneo Park CDI. What a awesome show!!!! A massive Thank you to Fiona and her team at the Boneo Classic for all your hard work, it is such a rider friendly super show. Looking forward to coming back down again.
Florenz was so brave throughout the show, I was really happy with him even though our tests weren't mistake free, he really showed some amazing power and expression. Thank you too all the Melbourne crew who came out to support us over the show.
First day of competition at Boneo Park CDI is done and dusted. The Sydney riders must have brought the rain down with us for you all here in Melbourne. Boneo Park is such a great show offering our horses exposure to great atmosphere, super surfaces to ride on and a friendly superbly run event. Which is such a credit to Fiona and her team.
Florenz was a little overawed by things today, a great experience and learning curve for him. He wasn't so sure about the show jumpers. Haha
There were great bits to take away from today but too many costly mistakes to be up there today. Tomorrow is a new day and we can't wait to get out there again. Hopefully the sun will be shining too.
Road trip time to Boneo Park CDI. We had a great trip down. Florenz travelled like a star and was well protected in his awesome Kingsland bandage pads and bandages. The Kingsland bandage pad are the best ive ever used!!! They fit perfectly.
Boneo Park is such a lovely venue and Fiona Shelby is always so warm and inviting. We are excited about getting out there tomorrow for some training and then competing on Friday and Saturday.
Jess and I are now enjoying dinner, then early to bed after our 3am start!!
As yet another year draws to a close, I would like to say a big Thank You to Arden and Case from Flowervale Stud, Velsha Seaborne, Debra Mills and Melissa Quinn for doing an amazing job organizing all my clinics throughout the year. I have had a fantastic time meeting and helping some really wonderful horses and riders. I look forward to seeing you all again in 2016!!
To my dedicated bunch of students here at home, I am so proud of all the amazing results and goals you have all achieved throughout 2015, both in the competition arena and in training. Never stop believing in your dreams. Bring on 2016.
WISHING YOU ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A FANTASTIC NEW YEAR.
Christmas came early today!! Feel so blessed to be able to showcase these amazing clothes. I love the Kingsland range and the new Dressage range is beautiful, its all so stylish and comfortable. A huge Thank you to Jenny and Kate from Kingsland Equestrian Australia NZ for your amazing support of me and my team.
My beautiful Flowervale Florenz was such a good boy at Nationals, even though we weren't in the winners circle this year, im so proud of how far he has come. His rider really needs to stop going the wrong way!!! (oops) The future is looking exciting with this boy as he continues to develop the strength and collection needed at these higher levels.
Thank you to dressage bits and pieces for these great photos.
What a Awesome suprise today to receive this email. Both my boys winning National Gold Medals. Sooooo proud of World Star and Flowervale Florenz!!!!
So proud of my boy Flowervale Florenz who stepped up to Prix St George today. Unfortunately the jockey had a few blonde moments and Floz being a little too expressive at times, but so proud of him anyway. Onwards and upwards now.
It was a stunning spring day at the NSW Dressage Championships yesterday.
Flowervale Florenz was such a good boy, Unfortunately in the 5.2 he got tangled in the arena fence, which then ended up lying on the track so made for a few interesting moves!! yet he never threw in the towel. So i was thrilled with his attitude to keep on going. In the 5.3 he was great ending up on 68.9% and 2nd place. The Advanced class was full of so many wonderful horse and rider combinations, its awesome to watch and exciting for the future as these horses press onto the FEI ranks. Congratulations to all place getters.
Big thanks to my wonder sponsors Brighton Saddlery, Vega Dressage Saddles, Kingsland Equestrian Wear Australia and Rose-Hip Vital Equine your support is very much appreciated and keeps my team looking and feeling great.
