Lily and Armada Dyffryncothi Bridget contested two medium classes at Burrows Court, Lily’s second attempt at this level. It looked much more established than at Hartpury and they won both their sections on 67% and 68%. Still lots of areas to improve on but it seems to be coming together nicely!
Lily rode two superb tests at Kings Bromyard in the NSEA qualifiers. She took the Novice on 78% and the elementary on 74%. The tests were crisp and accurate and she thoroughly deserves to qualify for the championships at Addington Manor in October!!!

Latona has produced the most wonderful colt foal by Floriscount. Big, strong and healthy he is just stunning. He moves as if on springs and has a wonderful relaxed outlook. All went well and we have high hopes for him and Lily in the future. How exciting!!!!
