Bermudez BDA ridden by Dani Johnston was in flying form at Willowbanks EC on Sunday. This athletic and lovable horse took on the 1m25 course with gusto, clearing the jumps by miles to take 3rd place and qualifying for Blue Chip Championship, 2023.
We took the boys for 4 days of competing at the Winter Classic Show rescheduled from Keysoe to Arena UK. After an error on Jill's part entering Bermudez BDA for his first indoor show back, over a very testing & strong Lister 1.25 Winter Championship course, we stepped back to regain confidence the following day 🙄. Bermudez BDA was on fire after...
Koning Albert and Ellie Roberts produced two beautiful rounds at Elms Farm EC today and impressed the judge with his lovely fluent tests. All Ellie's hard work is paying off as in both tests Albert was willing and obedient and with Ellie's accurate riding, they took 1st place overall in the first test and 2nd place in his second test. A really fabu...
Well, we didn't expect this Both Culana Z and her Koning Albert sired son, Koning Jesko, both graded a High Silver Premium at their first ever British Breeding Futurity Grading 🇬🇧 This is Culana Z's first foal and our first entry into the vast world of breeding so we are really pleased 😀 We know it's not Gold or the top grade, but it means the worl...
With the weather forecast so awful we were in two minds as to whether we went out. It was thundering as we left and couldn't see across the garden. It didn't improve much either for the Foxhunter class with both Daniella Johnston and Koning Albert absolutely drenched. Koning Albert did a beautiful round but sadly tapped a pole off behind on one of ...
Both Bermudez BDA and Koning Albert had a little trip down the road for a show- jumping outing. Superbly piloted by Daniella Johnston, who also had her own horse in the classes to make for quick turnarounds. Koning Albert got a lovely steady double clear in both the Newcomers and the Foxhunter classes and Bermudez BDA, followed suit with another 2 ...
Koning Albert has been going so well in his training with dressage rider Ellie Roberts, that we decided to enter him into his first ever British Dressage competition which was held at Sheepgate Equestrian, South Lincs. He behaved impeccably as usual, and delighted us all with great first scores of 68% and 65% both being long arena tests, taking 2nd...
Extremely sad sale of a top winning horse whio hasn't yet reached his potential. Bermudez BDA has been a fantastic pony and then horse for us in the 5 years that we've owned him. Sired by Cevin Z, know for his fantastic athleticism, he is not just quick across the ground, but turns on a sixpence to a fence and is super careful. Competing currently ...
We were so proud to have been invited by British Breeding to take Koning Albert to the Stallion Parade held at the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials. Only 12 stallions in the Country are invited to attend, so we jumped at the opportunity to take Albert. Each stallion is allotted about 10 minutes in front of packed crowds to display their talents and...
A long and very very hot week spent at our first Bolesworth and we certainly had a mixed week. The courses were nicely built, very up to height and the surface was beautiful. Both Bermudez BDA and Koning Albert jumped really nicely all week, but sadly the results don't always show how well they performed. Most days there was well over 100 in each c...
