    Safety First

    In this week’s vlog, I take Johnny for a gallop and explain a little about my thought process going into two weeks of pre-Rolex training in Florida with Karen and David O’Connor. Ozzie is learning quickly and overcoming the reactive side of his brain. It was a huge deal to see him finally learn not…

    Special mid-week edition of my vlog From the Red Hills International Horse Trials in Tallahassee, Florida. Somehow, I managed to mangle my knee in my sleep.

    Unexpected snow, and a welcome visit from Nancy Bardy (Harmony Saddle Fitting / Custom Saddlery) to do some tree adjustments for Hwin. Fledge is a super training assistance with Ozzie, leading by example, building confidence, and keeping behavior in check.

    Training continues with Ozzie. Elisa gets a hair cut. Timothy eats banana bread. Elisa and Timothy get cheesy. All in all, another exciting week for Wallace Eventing.

    Stranger danger

    You can really see in this week’s vlog how much progress a horse can make in a very short period of time. I get my third ride on Henri, a 6 year old off the track thoroughbred, and my team-mate in the upcoming Retired Racehorse Project competition. He moves really well, and took to jumping…

    Bad Mare Day

    In spite of the fact that I felt wretched over the weekend, the ponies put in a really great showing at the 2016 Rocking Horse Winter II Horse Trials in Altoona, FL over the weekend. Johnny (aka Simply Priceless) put in a very strong performance, finishing on his dressage score to end up in 4th…
