Luigi
Birth year: 2016
Lulu rides the majority of horses at the yard. She has competed internationally up to 1.45m, as well as producing young young horses to a high level. Lulu is available to ride or compete your horse, as well as training and lessons.
Ellie joined our team at the end of 2022, settling in quickly with some successful training rounds and shows! Ellie works in London throughout the week and spends her weekends at the yard working with her horse, Leo. We love having them both on the team and look forward to the rest of the season ahead!
Weβve had a great first 5 months of the year, welcoming some new faces to the team.
The team have been mainly focusing on training throughout the winter in preparation for the summer season, with all members already getting results at 2024 shows!
The member of the OGS pony team have all come home with shows with placings and first rosettes, including Amalie Bearman returning from her first premier show with a 3rd and 1st place in the Foxhunter classes with Misty! π₯ π₯
The horses have all be working and training hard throughout winter, to come into the outdoor season producing clears at from British Novices to 1.30, with an exciting schedule of summer shows ahead!
Keep up to date with our results and training through our website and socials! πΈ
As we head into our winter season and indoor shows, we thought we should have a recap on summer at Old Granary Stables!
Shortly after our first trip to Hickstead in June, we said goodbye to two great horses from our stables. Both 7 year olds, Luigi and Qlipper Blossom headed off to new homes. Although it was very difficult to see them go, weβve enjoyed watching them both competing with their new owners.
It was a dream to have 2 young horses in our yard like Luigi and Qlipper Blossom, and produce them to their 7 year old year and we will now enjoy following their success with the new riders. ππ«
Throughout the rest of the summer, weβve been focusing on training the horses and clients left at home, as well as welcoming new members to the team! πͺπΌ
We also welcomed an old face back to the yard. Zeitgeist (Eric) has come home to drop down and enjoy life. π΄πΌ
We have spent the last month going to local shows with Lulu jumping Eric, and new rider Flo with her horse Liancara. Both horses have been coming home with results in 1st or 2nd place! π₯π₯
Another old face who has returned to the yard is Poppy! After completing racing school, Poppy has come back to OGS as our full time weekday and show groom! ππΌ
We now have some indoor shows planned with our team of new and old faces. Keep an eye on our website and social media pages for updates and videos of our winter show preparations! ππ«
The team had a very successful trip to the first Hickstead of the season! We had 3 horses competing from our stables, with a couple of other horses and riders jumping who also train with us. β¨
Qlipper Blossom VD Bleuken produced nothing but impressive clear rounds throughout the show, starting our Hickstead season as we mean to go on!
Hannah and Flynn jumped some great rounds, which included being placed out of a class of nearly 200 riders!
Ellie and OS Chateau Latour had a very successful show, stepping up to the 1.20 classes with ease, looking promising for the summer ahead.
All of the OGS students showcased their work and training we have been doing throughout the year to work towards jumping these more technical and challenging tracks like the ones at Hickstead. All horses and riders did the team proud!
Now back to work, to prepare for the next show. π«Ά
