Things are moving at a fast pace now... London 2012 fever is starting to kick in with the FEI making plans to supply riders from visiting nations with borrowed horses. The VI have been asked if they would like to be placed on the list for a borrowed horse and - to keep our options open while the decision on a horse continues - we have said yes please! I scared myself by counting that it is only 14 weeks till the entries close for Hartpury and 20 till the competition itself - not long to get training up to scratch and build a strong partnership with a new horse . I know that I have a lot of work ahead but am looking forward to it with growing excitement - and maybe a little bit of panic thrown in!

Last Thursday Andrew Murphy, my trainer, came and had a look at Ice for the first time. He was pleased with what he saw and immediately got Ice and me working in a very relaxed and soft way which is obviously the way forward for both of us. All very exciting. His owner Lisa is taking him hunting next week as the meet is at Littleton where he is stabled but the following week I am planning to have another training session with Andrew to keep our progress moving forward.
