For Loan - due to pregnancy
16.1hh IDxTB chestnut gelding, 8 yrs.  Suit a RC all-rounder, has competed in dressage, SJ and XC.  Still a little green jumping due to my lack of transport, but bold and thoroughly enjoys it - he would love to do more!  Has done fun rides and easy to hack.  Good to shoe and box, easy to have around, snaffle mouth.    Must not be turned out in a large herd, fine with 1-2 companions.  No hunting / team chasing. 

Looking for a caring, local, experienced home, not a first horse.  Owner would like to be able to visit.  Gwyllam is a very kind, well-schooled, low-mileage horse with a lot to offer.  Can be seen near Dymock.  Contact Andrea Ball 07855 352037 for more details.

Riding Club Showjumping at Hickstead

Cindie Bunce, Linda Kemp and Tina Price competed in the Riding Club Show Jumping competition at Hickstead on 1st August.  99 teams competed and the Malvern Team first rider Linda commenced at 8.00am. Linda set off at a cracking pace with a clear round and held the fastest time of the competition. Both Cindie and Tina rode excellent rounds with just four faults. The team was not placed however, congratulations to Linda for competing having been ill on the day of the competition and to Cindie and Tina for their participation, plus the invaluable back up crew of Rose and Chris Jones.



Mercian Showing at Bissell Wood

The Mercian Team Showing competition at Bissell Wood with a team entered consisting of Cindie Bunce, Sue Partridge, Sara Whitfield and Lin Harber brought mixed results. Both Cindie and Sue competing for the first time in a Showing class came second and third respectively, Sara unfortunately had a fall in the Working Hunter section and Lin missed the Veteran Class due to navigational problems in finding the venue and compounded by the class times being brought forward without notice.
