Coral Keen Derriere Equestrian Sponsored Event Rider ~ Early Season Roundup March 2016

Hello,

Here’s a round up of our first event of the season at Aldon and more news from Glebe Farm. Have a wonderful Easter!

Eqi-Trek Aldon

It was great to be out at Equi-Aldon and the horses all went very well. Cascaelle (Lola) managed to keep a lid on it for her dressage and stayed focus to produce a nice test, although she felt like she was going to explode riding her back to the lorry. She jumped a very nice clear showjumping but was given four faults as she spooked at one of the trade stands and spun having taken a step back! Cross country she felt brilliant as ever and was very bold. Highmead Proposition (Jake) did a really sweet dressage test. Sometimes he tries a little bit too hard, but he went beautifully. He jumped well too and was super across country. He feels like he knows he’s come on a lot but I went very steady with him as it’s a long season and I want to make sure the basics are firmly in place. Total Belief (April) was a star as always in the BE100. She did a lovely test, scoring an impressive 22 and jumped a super double clear although steady. She feels much further on in her education than she was a year ago and she finished fourth in a competitive section.

Overall I am really pleased with all three and as always they looked and felt brilliant thanks to the help and advice I get from Saracen Feeds. They also all looked the part too as I was really lucky to be sent a box of beautiful bridlework from Wyvern.

Jumping lessons

Corinne Bracken was here on Friday and the horses all jumped really well. It was a long day as I jumped eight horses and a few other riders came to jump as well. Then I taught six lessons that afternoon so I slept well until my alarm went off for Aldon at 5am the next morning. 

Larkhill cross country training

The weekend before Tweseldown was cancelled, which was such a shame for everyone involved, but Larkhill opened up the cross country course so I took the horses down there to have a school. It was great as I was able to use it as if it was an actual run. I probably rode six rounds of cross country in a couple of hours which was great for my fitness! The ground was super and it was a very productive day.

Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials

My Badminton dream is delayed for another year due to Wellshead Fare Opposition (Derby) having a bruised foot. Although he is back and fighting fit, the couple of weeks we missed meant we couldn’t do the preparation runs in time. It’s very disappointing but I’m looking forward to going back to Luhmuhlen again with him where we had such a  great time last year.  It’s been a huge worry but I feel relieved now that we’ve made the decision and we’ve shifted the focus to a couple of months later.

Easter and beyond

Easter weekend will be very much a normal one, with a roast cooked by dad on Sunday and the following weekend I will be at Howick with a couple of horses.

I hope you all have a wonderful few days off over Easter and thank you for your continued support,

Warm Regards,

Coral

Derriere Photography Competition 2016

Photography Competition An exciting opportunity to work with a dynamic and creative team

Team Derriere Equestrian are excited to announce  We have had an incredible response to the shout out for Photographers and have been inundated with emails, which is great. We have an wonderful brand and the work we do with photo shoots and video shoots with the team are always dynamic, energetic and creative for all involved. Our products sell throughout the UK in Equestrian Retailers and through 105 retailers in 29 countries around the world. Our media and images go far and wide and are represented on many equestrian eCommerce websites globally, with a high content of press that goes into print.   With the excitement for #DOTY2016 growing daily and some amazing finalists, following on from a team meeting ~ we have added an entire new dimension to this year’s competition! With such interest, we are now also running a photographic competition to crown not only our DOTY Winners for 2016, but also the 2016 DOTY Winning Photographer. Having run through the event and all timetabled, it really is going to be an excellent event this year.   Date ~ Sunday 22nd May 2016   Location – Westgate House, Gloucester   Finalists ~ 6 Ladies ~ 6 Gentlemen   Judges ~ Panel of 5 judges   Video ~ The event will be videoed and pulled together in a similar concept to the video link from our summer video below.   Times ~ 9am – 5pm To see some of the areas of the location for the shoot, take a look at our Summer 2015 Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFXSmfkjktc The plan for photographers:   All photographers of interest to submit, via email, 4 – 6 images of examples of their work. Together with supporting email confirming availability and agreement to participate on 22nd May in the DOTY finals. Any website links and a few words expressing why feel most suited to work with our brand Derriere Equestrian. We with then select 4 photographers as our finalists. Through the day, there are 4 specific areas for photographers to work: 1 – Stairs entrance shoot images (Indoors natural light & partial lighting)   2 – Backdrop and lighting area for shoot images (Indoors, professional lighting)   3 – Natural light shoot images indoors(Indoors natural lighting)   4 – Lifestyle images outside, with lorry and Fallabella Pony and Dog (Outdoors natural lighting)   The 4 photographers will be timetabled and rotated through these 4 areas, working with our finalists both individually and in pairs. Images will need to be shared with and the property of Derriere Equestrian for the Judging of the models through the day. However for the crowing of our winning photographer, we feel this should be 2x weeks following having submitted post production images for judging.   Really exciting concept, amazing opportunity for all involved and we will as always ensure there is a plethora of press, media and coverage for the full team.   The event will be formal, yet relaxed and great fun for all. We will need assured commitment from our photographers for the finals and are really excited at the opportunity to merge creative talents and work together as a dynamic team.   If photography is your field and this opportunity excites you, we would love to hear from you with the above for submission.  Contact us at: info@derriereequestrian.com Have a super day.
