Expert Bits are exactly what they say:

MODERN BIT DESIGNS AT AFFORDABLE PRICES
Expert Bits is the new revolutionary family-owned bitting brand from bitting consultants Matt and Lisa Waterworth.

I am excited to work with Matt and Lisa who use their huge amount of knowledge to ensure our horses are comfortable in the mouth therefore maximising the trainability, development and contentment.  

When they came to assess all the horses I noticed an improvement in all of them and was surprised how many horses have low upper palates.  My go to on many of the horses is the loose ring comfy barrel.

I recommend you have a bitting assessment for your pony or horse and see the difference for yourself.

The Partner (Conquer) is part of an Experience Syndicate for £95 per year - This is run by Event Horse Owners Syndicate.  For more information please contact:

https://www.eventhorseownerssyndicate.co.uk/buy-a-share/the-partner/

Conquer is bred to show jump and we bought him as a 6 year old.  He likes his own space and given the choice wouldn’t have anyone in the next door stable. He is a sensitive character .  His confidence improved hugely over the years and this shows in his results and achievements.  

When away at big competitions we have to be one step ahead of him in how to keep him relaxed. He is a machine cross country. Where errors occurred they were not his doing.   He had a very good first half of 2022 finishing at Bramham 4*L with a good dressage, double clear with time faults keeping him out of the prizes.  We then gave him the rest of the year off as he had a small injury but he is back out in 2023 starting with a 7th in the Lincoln OI.

Top Achievements 2023:

Completion of first 5* at Luhumuhlen 
Bicton 4*S - 12th
Cirencester A - 3rd

Achievements to date:

We have two very exciting foals out of Ascona M - full brother and sister and by Amiro Z

Ascona M (Ava) came to us in September 2021 and she now stands as a brood mare.  She has been an amazingly talented horse, winning Luhmulen 5* in 2019, 6th Pau 5* 2019 and many top 10 placings at all levels throughout her career with Jonelle and Tim Price.

Amiro Z - has a superb temperament, he has plenty of scope and competed internationally with success to 1.45m.  He is almost 70% blood  and is a very popular stallion for event horse breeders. He is an easy, rideable stallion with plenty of scope and quick in the air.  He has a number of successful progeny in eventing including Amiro Island (2016) ridden by Harry Meade, many top 10 at Intermediate and 2nd in 2*L 2023.  Corimiro (2016) ridden by Sarah Bullimore, 1st 7 year old class and 3*L in 2023.  Caunton First Class (2014) ridden by Oliver Townend, many top 5 placings at 3*.

We are very pleased with the stamp of the foals who are very athletic and easy to handle for us and the farrier.

V.I.P Vinnie is now retired from Eventing. He is going to be loaned out and have a career in Dressage.  We will be forever grateful for everything that was achieved with him and everything he taught us. 

Purchased as a 4 year old and was obviously talented from day one. He hasn’t disappointed since.  He loves to be the centre of attention and has always been top dog. 

He likes to perform on the big stages and they bring the best out in him. He now realises there are some young guns around and let's them know who's boss! 

His dressage has improved hugely over the years and we look forward to his future success.

Following XC retirement at his first 5* Vinnie had 2022 on the sidelines and although he competed at the beginning of 2023 it was decided that he should be retired from Eventing. 

Achievements:

2021

3rd After Dressage at his first 5* at Bicton International. Sadly I had to pull him up after the second fence on the xc as I felt a change in his stride pattern. I am so glad I noticed as he injured a tendon. I don't like to imagine what would have happened had I not felt this. Nothing like the HIGHS and LOWS of the sport all in the space of 24 hours at the highest level.

Somerford Park OI - 2nd

2019

Bicton International CCI3*S - 1st

Bramham International CCI4*L Under 25 Championships - 3rd

Otto has just competed at Cirencester Novice March 2023 and Finished on his dressage score of 27 - finishing second. 

Otto is super straight cross country and has a very easy big gallop.  He has lovely paces on the flat. He has been slow to develop due to his breeding but he has strengthened over the winter which will help his show jumping to continue to improve. He now has the Marlborough Downs to hack over so this will seriously help his development. 

Otto is hacked by everyone on the yard including myself and is beyond easy to manage on the ground at the yard.

At Albion, our guiding principle is simple. Blending traditional values and artisan craftsmanship with revolutionary innovation and state of the art technology, we take tremendous pride in producing beautifully handcrafted country lifestyle products and equestrian supplies.

Established in 1985 with a core vision, our brand began as we desired to pioneer a truly premium range of equestrian supplies. Since then, we have gained an outstanding reputation for providing premium quality, excellent customer service and for being talented saddle makers.

As our reputation developed and our success continued, we have evolved. Although we remain committed to our equestrian core, we now supply an exclusive portfolio of luxurious leather accessories.

We have also developed distinct brand positioning through the expansion of our exquisitely designed lifestyle products. As our success grew, we aimed to continue to satisfy the aspirations and demand of our original Albion customer. This has led to the introduction of unique and timeless designs including stunning handbags and stylish accessories.

As our range of products have expanded, we have always stayed true to our brand and guiding principle. Albion always deliver superior quality products, whether that’s equestrian supplies or saddles.

All top riders know the importance of safety and with many of the best riders in the world putting their trust in Champion, you know you can too. Wocket Woy & The Pwoducer, Ruby & Katie Walsh, Pippa Funnell MBE, Piggy French, Kitty King and Sophie Wells MBE, to name but a few, all ride in Champion products because they know that Champion products offer supreme levels of protection, while allowing them to focus the job of riding their horses.

Champion has a tremendous safety heritage and the brand has been a driving force in the design and development of protective riding hats for over 40 years. Over this time, design and production technology has been refined, enhanced and perfected to ensure Champion products are based upon the most up-to-date, scientific safety research.

Champion helped to develop and was the first manufacturer to the British Standard PAS015 over 20 years ago. PAS015 is more stringent than other standards.

Some things haven’t changed though. Champion products have always stood up to the most rigorous testing standards and Champion’s hats have always carried the British Standards Institute (BSI)  Kitemark – right from when the brand was first launched over 40 years ago.

The Kitemark stands for continual batch testing and factory inspections and guarantees you that every Champion hat will comfortably out perform the four main areas of testing: penetration, shock absorption, harness strength and stability. On average, every single working day of the year, a Champion hat is independently tested by the British Standards Institute to ensure it exceeds the PAS015 standard.

…Giving you complete confidence in the fact that all Champion products are built to perfection, tested to destruction…

I am proud to join the Hi Form team as an Ambassador at the beginning of  2022.

“Hi Form have so much knowledge and experience, they offer huge support to my team at Will Rawlin Eventing. The products deliver fast acting, effective but natural solutions without which, none of my future success would be possible. Their dedication and commitment to my horse’s welfare and health is so reassuring. I have absolute faith in the products, and their support.”

Hi Form have a number of clear points that set us apart from many supplement companies out there. We select human grade ingredients including organic herbal extracts, wild crafted herbs, top quality amino acids, vitamins and mineral tissue salts.

We select mineral tissue salts instead of standard minerals as they provide micro feed rates and allow balancing of diets more successfully, without the need for multiple large scoops. The formulas contain no fillers, binding agents, preservatives, colours or flavours.

All the Hi Form supplements are produced in a HACCP certified facility, where our formulas are the only animal supplement they make, among some of Australia’s leading human health supplements. We don’t cut corners and demand perfection in our ingredients.

I am super excited to become an Ambassador for Holland Cooper in 2024.  Look out for their timeless mens clothing as I trot up at International competitions throughout the season wearing their timeless clothing.

Holland Cooper now have a mens range of clothing  and I believe what Jade has said, below, about their women's clothing applies to their mens line as well - I certainly felt great wearing their clothing in the trots up at Badminton 2024.

Jade has said about Holland Cooper :

"Holland Cooper is a way of life. Our collections exude luxury and sensibility, we design pieces that will fit into her lifestyle and stay with her for years to come. I have set out to empower women through beautiful clothes, allowing and facilitating inner strength and power. I believe, if you look good, you feel good.
