Team McNair: Off to Training Camp
http://teammcnair.blogspot.com/2010/03/off-to-training-camp.html
The trials and tribulations of an aspiring dressage rider. Wednesday, 17 March 2010. Off to Training Camp. Yesterday afternoon, Bolli and I did the four hours drive down to Oxford to drop her off at Michael Peace's on 'Training Camp'. Thankfully, the traffic was on our side and it was quite a smoothe journey (not something I expected of the M6, M42 and M40! She settled in at Michael's with ease and I left her munching happily on her hay looking very pleased with herself! Posted by Rebecca McNair.

Team McNair: June 2010
http://teammcnair.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
The trials and tribulations of an aspiring dressage rider. Wednesday, 9 June 2010. It's been quite an exciting few months. I cannot believe how much time has passed since my last entry. So much has happened since then! Since then, with the help of Sam Cawkwell, we have gone from strength to strength. So much so that I decided to book her in to the Badminton Young Horse class at Myerscough Arena on 13th June. So on to Sunday now. 9th June 2010 - Myerscough Arena. Hannah and Grace had an altercation in the...

Hollinhurst Rebel: Crow Wood Report
http://hollinhurst-rebel.blogspot.com/2008/03/crow-wood-report.html
Saturday, March 08, 2008. We set off at 11am yesterday morning looking very scruffy. I had intended to plait her up in the morning, but time ran away with me and I ended up having to just give her a quick brush and set off. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

JetSet Rebel: September 2008
http://jetset-rebel.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Friday, 12 September 2008. As you can see from the title, Troy has also gained a 1st Premium! I was looking through my evaluation sheet a few weeks ago and discovered the evaluators had actually written his eventing marks alongside the dressage ones. I contacted Jan at BEF and after I had explained the reasons I wanted to remain in the dressage section (to receive the feedback which I found so valuable) it was agreed that he could be awarded the 1st Premium for eventing too.

Hollinhurst Rebel: Hannah is back from boot camp!
http://hollinhurst-rebel.blogspot.com/2008/04/hannah-is-back-from-boot-camp.html
Saturday, April 05, 2008. Hannah is back from boot camp! I went to pick her up yesterday morning. Jo showed me how she has been lunging her before riding to get her more forwards, and encouraging her into the outside rein. She looks quite different, she has muscle in her bottom that she certainly did not have when she went. So, I am a very happy bunny this morning. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Thursday, January 17, 2008. Monday, January 14, 2008. Due to everything that has been going on with my young mare, Grace, I have not really been updating the Blogs as I should do. However, I am now determined to keep both Blogs up to date. Fingers crossed for Saturday! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Equi-talk, the website for all things equestrian in Lancashire.

Hollinhurst Rebel: April 2008
http://hollinhurst-rebel.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 21, 2008. BD Report - Cockshot Dressage. I have been concentrating on getting Hannah forwards and more elastic for the past month, so we have backed off the competing side of things. However, I have felt that she has been much more consistent in her work and decided to book in for a BD competition at the weekend. It was the first time I have taken her on my own, so I had to make sure I knew the tests to avoid ‘panic’ moments which usually occur when I go completely blank! We went into the a...

JetSet Rebel: Troy is going to the BEF Futurity
http://jetset-rebel.blogspot.com/2008/06/troy-is-going-to-bef-futurity.html
Sunday, 29 June 2008. Troy is going to the BEF Futurity. Things have changed slightly since this blog was started. Troy was living in a field with two other colts, but he had some scabs on his face which were being caused by a lice infestation. I decided to bring him home because there was no way I could send him up to the producers with lice, so he has been living at Corrie Green’s yard since May. I am going up to visit him in two weeks time, so a long update will no doubt be made!

JetSet Rebel: Troy at the Futurity
http://jetset-rebel.blogspot.com/2008/08/troy-at-futurity.html
Saturday, 23 August 2008. Troy at the Futurity. Firstly, let me apologise for the delay of this post and also the lack of updates on this blog. Things have been pretty hectic since the Futurity, but I am now getting into the routine of having three horses and it is becoming slightly easier. We got to Myerscough with plenty of time, so I walked him around, reloaded him a few times and had a few trots up in hand. He felt pretty good, was listening to me and not too hot either. As we walked over to ...The v...

Hollinhurst Rebel: March 2008
http://hollinhurst-rebel.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 31, 2008. Hannah is now at boot camp! Hannah has been quite difficult to get forwards the past week, and seems to be blocking through her right side. So I made the decision to send her over to my trainer for a week of ‘boot camp! She seems to have settled in very well and Jo said she is really trying. I nipped up with a cooler for her over the weekend and she looked completely exhausted! Saturday, March 08, 2008. Tuesday, March 04, 2008. However, last week I took a good friend’s advic...
