Follow Dan and his fiesty sidekick Dolly the Haflinger as they prepare for their first season of British Eventing competition. The ‘Diva-Scale’ Firstly, I would like to say a big thank you for all of your kind comments about my first blog instalment. I’ve shown these to Dolly and, unfortunately, her ego has now escalated to a previously undiscovered level on the ‘Diva-Scale’. I will tell you more about that later. Since we last spoke, Dolly and I have been hard at work preparing for our debut at Kelsall Hill Horse Trials where we are entered for the BE80(T) on Friday 22nd April. and an A4 sized dressage arena - but I I’ve been practising day and night, trying finally think I have cracked it. my hardest to memorise the new BE97 As for Dolly, she has been subjected to a test. There are pieces of paper all over my ‘boot camp-esque’ regime of schooling house, my desk and my car, which are lessons, hunter trials and show jumping covered in lines and circles. I have even practice - all with mixed success. resorted to practising with a ‘mini Dolly’ 1) The schooling lesson … went amazingly well and Dolly worked in a great out line. 2) The Hunter trials … I’m afraid to say that Dolly’s diva side reared it’s blonde head once she was back with her hunting mates! She didn’t want to go in to the arena and put on such a show that she resembled a stunt horse in the Moscow State Circus.

  • A Borrowed Horse
    .... --· . -·-·· .. A ··-- - A BORROWED HORSE This year the 1981 Rolex International Kentucky Horse Trials featured an "invitational" division with riders from seven countries, competing on bor­ rowed American horses. AN INTERVIEW WITH JOHN WATSON Illustrations by Yvonne Todd 4 USCTA NEWS by Neil R. Ayer John Watson of Ireland has been a member of their Three-Day Event Team for the past several years. Riding as the only competitor from that country in the 1978 Lexington World Championships, he will long be remembered by all of us who were there for the spec­ tacular ride he gave Cambridge Blue when he won the Individual Silver Medal. For the 1981 Trials, John Watson rode the Appendix-registered quarter horse Mr. Hop (aged bay gelding, 16.0 H. by the Thoroughbred stallion Mister Some Charge, out of the Quarter Horse mare, Poco Run), generously loaned to him by Roisin de Pasquale of Pinehurst, North Carolina. Neil: What do you think of this invitational Horse Trial idea and riding horses that you'v~ never seen before? John: Well, the first I ever heard about it was last August when I got a letter from Edith Conyers, saying we're planning on this. It was only in the project stage. Was I remotely interested? My reply to that was to write back with a large "Yes, please!" and Dressage is not his best phase - not mine either - so that was my entire letter. perhaps we were well matched. He is a little bit "gassy"; but It seems like a really great idea. It's fun to get together at a at the same time, we're here to enjoy ourselves, and I have competition because you make friends with international not enjoyed riding a test more than the one I rode on him riders abroad.
