I think RWC might end up surprising us all
I admire your optimism but I doubt it, she’d need to humble herself for that to happen and she’s way too in love with herself for that.

There were many times I didn’t ride the kids pony because I knew I was too heavy. Weight is so difficult, it’s really just not as straightforward to lose it, but that being said it’s not the horses problem it’s the riders and we have to take responsibility for them. Be whatever weight you choose to be, but don’t burden the horse with your issues. I hope BOAC is okay and has support around her, we don’t know what her life is like but she must know she shouldn’t be riding them. She’s such a nice rider and her horses go so well for her, I hope she’s getting some help.

But remember she’s only showing us the bits she wants us to see - she referenced a lower score and comments she didn’t like in her previous test, so she didn’t make a vlog of that day. I know several people who would not make it to qualifiers for pure dressage, so they do DTM to qualify that way, so the marking seems different

It's Vossi who is a constant surprise. That horse has a heart of gold. She is very lucky.
He’s a saint for putting up with her on his mouth and back! I’d love to know why he hated the jumping scene but seems to be taking to the dressage scene. I can’t stand her at all, if it doesn’t go her way she cracks the shits, and she thinks she some sort of dressage queen. She will get to a particular level where she won’t improve or whatever and the scores will reflect and she will have a hissy fit about it all.

I don’t think he hated the jumping scene. It’s more that she’s a terrible rider and he’s too much horse for her when it comes to jumping.

anyone watch the seren video?

Just talking about having a bit fitter out, and then a lameness work up. Doesn't disclose what is wrong, which I mean she doesn't have to. I'm glad Hannah has finally got a vet out to her, a lot of people have been saying for a while the pony doesn't look right. Better late than never and hopefully she can get her right. I also hope she's learnt when so many people are saying it doesn't look right, it won't hurt get a vet out. We're not just saying it because we are horrible people

Ember looks highly out of control on Lucy’s latest. I can’t see him ever calming down in the XC faze of his discipline.

I agree, and lets remember, dressage to music always gets the higher scores. Yes, 74% is a lot, but this judge may have been generous. She has improved a bit, have to give a little bit of credit.

However, her position really hasn't improved. I went back to look at her riding in her jumping saddle/GP (whatever she had before) and I think she was better then. Someone on here said its the big knee rolls on the saddle that are causing her a problem and I really agree, I think they're doing her no favours at all. I personally don't like massive knee rolls, I think they give a bit of a cheat seat, but I guess can be useful to lock you in place if you've got a big moving horse or something that can be quite exuberant.

I'd like to see her be more real about her marks, comments and not just the 'I came 1st' 'Red ribbons' blabla.

She’s all for the ribbons though! Nothing else, because it makes her look good……. If she gets shit scores, she’s bagging off the judges comments, yet gets “on her high horse” when someone gives her constructive criticism on in her comments section

This! I've not long bought a horse that was an absolute weapon show jumping and I thought I would be fine having produced a few show jumpers. He's more of a 'professionals' horse, and I have certainly had to learn to ride him the way that works for him! Which is far more forward and not killing the canter, which is essentially what she wanted to do - go slow around a course, hence all the bit she had in him.

Yep I agree with you. These horses have no choice, either. Whereas she has the choice of whether to get on or not. I have reported her posts for animal abuse. Not that anything will be done but perhaps it will shake her a little.

Yes I don't think he hated it either. I remember Charlotte interviewing a rider who jumped him on a ticket (in a discovery class maybe ) when he was a youngster, before Charlotte bought him and she was shocked when she said he did well. I think he started planting his feet in the SJ ring because he was picking up on Charlotte's tension. I don't mind her, but I can't help but think she's just after winning to validate herself for some reason. So she's prob not that into the actual dressage, but knew she couldn't win all the SJ rounds on Vossi like she did her childhood horse. So then she just switched to dressage because Vossi is naturally well built for it and she can get ribbons due to his natural paces etc.

When I was slimmer I was 5ft 6 10.5 stone size 8/10 with a 28 inch bra back size
I am 5ft 8, 8.7 stone and a size 8/10 so just shows how much it varies and why you can't get held up on your dress size

Clothes size vary so much, depending on what store you shop in. I was generally a 10/12 at 5’10 and 10 and a half stone.

Blob the cob is pregnant I hope for her everything goes well and motherhood is everthing she wants. But also that she uses this as an opportunity to reduce the amount of animals she has and bring some stability to her life.

I really hope both her and her parents cut down the number of animals. They have to realise you can’t save them all, and with a baby on the way, they need the money and the space.

and maybe jumping/riding isn’t so sensible considering how much she’s had to do to be able to concieve!
