Duchess competing again

Duchess has had an exciting weekend, she was taken for a trip out in the horse trailer. She went to Mullacott Event Centre with Nicky to do two dressage classes.

Now as you all know Duchess is quite a sensible girl, and nothing really fazes her. However she thought the idea of being away from home with lots of horses she didn’t know was very exciting! She did confide in me that she slightly forgot her manners for a few minutes when she first got there!

She was a good girl though and managed to come home with a couple of rosettes.  This was her second competition in the last two weeks and she says she has heard on the horse vine that she might get to go to Devon County Show with her carriage.

Teddy says he thinks that these competitions must be to get plenty of practice before going to a big show like that. I will of course keep you informed of what happens; that is my job after all!

The staff here at Calvert Trust Exmoor seem to be quite proud of Duchess's achievements, they have even put up a display board in the restaurant!

Lots of space for more rosettes, and a great photo of me too!
