| Hi Liz
We bought Wilfret from you last Autumn (2006) and thought we should update you on how he is doing. We backed him Christmas 2006 and Alastair has only had time to ride at the weekends and lessons every 3 weeks or so. But now with a new trainer and more regular lessons these past few months.
He went to his first ever dressage competition on Sunday 16 December 2007 (Trailblazers) and won both classes with 68% in Prelim 7 and then 70.41% in Prelim 18. We are delighted.
Boy can he jump too and loves it! Weekend before last, he jumped a narrow log with no wings etc, planks and saw and jumped fillers for the first time in his lesson and last weekend he jumped them all again and a water tray as well!
He is an angel to handle and you can do anything with him. He is totally relaxed about us clipping him and was from the first time and great with the farrier. His feet are so strong and such good shape, he has remained bare foot since we got him. He travels in the trailer on his own or with Karino very happily and eats from the minute he gets in, to the time he gets out!
People always ask us where we got Wilfret from and we always recommend you and if we did ever want another horse, we would certainly come to you 1st.
He has his own website where pictures and video clips of his latest achievements can be seen! http://www.wilfret.org.uk
Best Wishes Rachael & Alastair
