Thank you for commenting on my blog. I liked that one myself, we took some more, but haynet stopped working properly 3 times when I tried to upload and I had to write everything again and again and so on, so I gave up. Hope to get some riding photos next time.

Nasty falls for Tim Stockdale and Denis Lynch - Horse & Hound

Nasty falls for Tim Stockdale and Denis Lynch This weekend Tim Stockdale and Denis Lynch both demonstrated that even top riders are not immune to that old saying: "Horses are great levellers". After winning the La Baule Derby with Night Train, Denis was e...

Watch the videos. Ouch!

Really ouch - especially Tim Stockdale after breaking his neck a few months ago.....

Sally Walker

Blimey - it looked like Denis had just put his hat back on so that may have helped him a bit.

finlaysmum

Very relieved for Tim! And have no idea how Denis ended up hitting that arena feature, one of those bizzarre accidents.

Elaine

Bli - bit scary for both of them, but especially Tim after his recent accident. Pretty amazing (and wonderfully controlled) jumping from him though.

Ive just booked a lesson for tomorrow. The trainer is an ex pro eventer whom Ive known for years... I really need some cheering up :-/ and haven't had a lesson since January! Hoping this time tomorrow I feel better :(

Sally Walker

Hope you enjoy it FM, I find a lesson always puts me back on top.

finlaysmum

Thanks Sally, Im hoping it has the same effect :)

Hi all! We got sixth in our class today. But I have to say it wasn't a great day. I got soaked right though to my underwear, Finn was pulling like a train and stressing in the trailer which ment I had to get him out far too early before his class and got frozen and drenched. Not a great day really.

Sally Walker

Hey you went and you competed - a dream for a lot of us riders - so I think you need a change of mind set - a great day - you went, you competed, got sixth and you came home safe... why do we riders put such high expectation onto ourselves and our horses - we are people and our horses are animals - not machines - different each day.....

Edz

Well done, you did good to go out in this weather at all, can't imagine it was pleasant getting soaked & frozen.

Elaine

You got sixth - that's fabulous. Not nice being soaked to your undies though - a wee draft of something once you're home for good should do the trick!!

finlaysmum

Thanks everyone. It was a miserable day and Im feeling a bit out of sorts right now hence the moany post.

Busy day preparing for our County Show tomorrow, including putting my two ripped rugs to the saddler for repair :( And now that its going to rain tomorrow I dont have a waterproof rug! Ah the joys. Hope everyone is well :)
