It’s common knowledge that when it comes to horses, not everything always goes to plan. South-west brand ambassador Ali Dane found this out the hard way when her horse Legs got trapped in her lorry. Luckily the pair were unharmed – read more in Ali’s latest brand ambassador blog.

Last Thursday Horse & Hound’s annual show guide was released. Brand ambassadors Jessica Leroy and Bonnie Fishburn were pleased to spot themselves amongst the 100+ pages:

The show guide is full of great events to enter via Equo. However, don’t worry if you didn’t manage to grab a copy, you can also search Equo’s upcoming events online. 

Great to see some successful show jumping at Willow Banks EC. Want to give it a go? Search Willow Bank’s upcoming events… 

…but alas, with mighty highs comes crashing lows. Get well soon Jessica!

It seems that our north-east brand ambassador Claire Taylor has also experienced the highs and lows of horses. But don’t give up. Get back in the saddle, search for another event, and give it all you’ve got…

…You never know when a red rosette is just around the corner! Well done Joanne, a great win at Epworth EC. 

It seems like Stone Lodge EC also had a great weekend. We love this picture!

…and what a great photo of the beautiful Treasure Chest II and Tony Lomas at Kingston Maurward College:

We also adore these lovely photos of Oakley taken by David Sharp. Great choice of saddlepad Claire!

We were very shocked to read this post over the weekend. This really drives home the importance of wearing a hat while riding – you just never know. Take it easy Jessica!

It seems like a lot of you were out competing over the weekend – we love hearing how you got on.
