Sheepham Saddles Supported Riders
We are delighted to annouce the recipients of our Sheepham Saddles supported riders program. Each will receive a bundle of Sheepham clothing for horse or rider and we hope they will proudly wear them at events, shows and competitions.
Our final supported rider is @eq_hopey. Hope is competing at BE90 this year and last year competed in BE80 on her 15.3 Thoroughbred X. Next year she will be moving to BE100 and is currently in the process of buying a new event horse so that she can work towards my goal of being part in the free BE under 18 team.
Hope has previously purchased a dressage saddle from us and is keen for her new horse to have a jump and dressage saddle from us.
We are looking forward to seeing how Hope`s new horse looks in our saddles and also collaborating with her.

Well she showed me…
When I said ride her like you stole her, she took it quite literally! In a mashoosive class with much older kids on super speedy ponies, Bella only went and came 2nd qualifying for Hartpury 🏆yesterday! sheepham_saddles

Bella absolutely blew me away yesterday by her level of maturity and ability to know what to do when things don’t quite go to plan!
She started the 60 class and it was going so well until jump 7 and they parted company! Bella took quite a fall smashing into the wing! amaya_showjumper was there so outside the ring I suggested maybe Amaya could ride her in the next class but Bella wiped away her tears and said please let me do it! Give me a second chance! I can’t deny how nervous I was but she got back on, back into the warm up and started to warm up for the 70!
In she went and I watched as she got Angelina up together as the bell went and headed towards jump 1, then 2 … but she missed the turn to jump 4 and headed down the side of the arena, Angelina picking up speed but Bella pulled her up, got her back into trot and listening to her before she was ready to continue with the course! I was honestly blown away that not only did she get Angelina back, she corrected herself knowing that she had missed the jump and with no help got herself back to jump 4 and around the 12 jumps clear! Yes she picked up a few faults 😜 but honestly I couldn’t have been more proud!
A massive thanks to the amazing Hannah mendipplains_ston_easton who congratulated Bella on her sheer determination and incredible round and Bella was beaming (as was I)!
She is fierce and determined! And it’s hard to remember she is still just 6 years old! I could learn a lot from her myself! ❤️ Well done kiddo! You have an amazing future ahead of you!

Well, the road is long but we survived the first walk out!! 10 long weeks in stables. Aided by light sedation, we have started our road to recovery!!

We have had the most amazing time at the national championships surrounded by so many brilliant horses 🤩 Bobby was a star scoring 68.85% placing 16th out of 43 being only 0.6% away from a 10th rosette! I can’t put into words how proud I am of this pony for holding his own against so many bred for purpose horses, the rhino strikes again ❤️🦏❤️ sheepham_saddles #sheephamsaddles #supportedrider bd_southandeast

I saw this quote and it really resonated with me! Do you agree, do we perhaps try and help when something isn’t a strength when really we should be working on those things we are good at?
Bella had an amazing lesson yesterday and the instructor couldn’t believe she was only 6! I feel I’m often telling her she has plenty of time to jump big or do competitions etc but yesterday I realised, why am I saying this, if she wants to do it, it’s time I let her and take the lead from her! Watch this space!

Another great weekend with Team South and East at vale view for the BD youth inter regionals! It was lovely to catch up with everyone I met last year and new team mates for this year! I was so pleased with how Bobby went in our B squad skills tests scoring 84.5 and 85.2 over the two days 💚 I’m sure Bobby and the dogs are going to sleep well tonight after their trip away 🥰 bd_southandeast sheepham_saddles #sheephamsaddles

I am beyond proud of lady May today at her first Windsor horse show 👑 this was also her first show of this scale and as always, took it all in her stride as if she’s been there every day of her life! No placings this time in a big class but an angel from start to finish especially with the judge ride. We couldn’t have wanted any more of her, such a special horse ❤️🦄 supported by sheepham_saddles
