24.01.2022 No one ever wants to have to write these kinds of posts, but here we go.. Saturday night, Charlie (PS Lucarno), spread his wings and took his final flight. It was the last thing I was expecting to do after I finished work that day, but I'm glad we got to Charlie in time to give him a peaceful goodbye. Charlie and I achieved great things through life. From competing up to Advanced Dressage and being the reserve combination for the 2012 London Paralympics, and then right t...o be there by my side on my wedding day. Nothing will ease the pain from losing a horse that has touched my heart in so many ways. I'm just at peace knowing he is out of pain and discomfort now. I know I've chosen to put this on social media, but please don't flood my inbox with 1000 messages asking questions. I need some time to just adjust before answering millions of messages. I appreciate your thoughts and condolences, though Thank you to @strugglingequestrianwife for being my rock on such a cold, dark night. Thank you to @jothepumpkin for driving out to be with us and being the support we needed. Thank you to the amazing team at @horsemed_hills for being so kind and making the process as least painful for us all as possible. Charlie, I'll miss your massive cheekbones and your teddy bear like cuddles. Fly free, my darling butterball. I will always love you and forever miss you. Rest in peace See more

15.01.2022 I didn't think it could have gotten any wetter than yesterday.. I was wrong We got an absolute drenching for both tests, mainly in riding the last test of the day in a torrential downpour with squally winds Lizzie hoss handled the weather like a pro, but still a bit of tension today unfortunately. Res Para Champion however! Very happy with the improvement that each test brought for us this weekend. She wasn't herself this weekend, yet still tried her heart out for me. ... Well done to all fellow competitors for braving such horrible conditions. Who said dressage was a glamorous sport?! Thank you to the event committee for a fabulous weekend, despite the weather. Thoroughly impressed at how the grounds held up - there was not a puddle in sight!! Thank you also to the event sponsors - you play a major part in the production of these events. Thank you to @angela_donaldson for once again warming me up and calling my tests! Dedicated coach standing out in the rain all weekend!! Thank you to @ashlynkernot and @strugglingequestrianwife for being top grooms and support networks for me Thank you to my amazing sponsors: @qjridingwear @equistylequalitystocks @kelatoanimalhealth Minor Details See more

15.01.2022 #TeamKELATO on the road to #Tokyo2020 Having qualified already for the 2020 Paralympic Games in Tokyo with her mare Matavia Furst Lady (Lizzie pictured), Adela...ide-based para-equestrian athlete and Kelato SuperGEN rider, Elizabeth Sobecki (m. Griffiths) says her selection now depends on achieving high scores in her upcoming competitions over the next three months. Riding since age nine, Liz knew right away that pursuing the Olympic dream would be her lifetime goal. Diagnosed at age sixteen with Multiple Sclerosis, a disease that attacks the central nervous system, and then two years later with Fibrous Dysplasia, a degenerative bone disease, when the rest of her friends were graduating high school, Liz was in a wheelchair, requiring nurses to help feed and shower her. Doctors agreed she would not ride again. Determined to prove them wrong, Liz started competing in dressage as a para-athlete. And compete she did - very successfully! With a top ten finish at the World Equestrian Games in 2014, winner of the 2014 Grandeur Press Sports Award, multiple Grand and Reserve Championships, member of the 2017/2018 National Para-Equestrian squad and gold medal winner in the Dressage SA High Performance Medal Scheme, Liz’s accomplishments continue to grow yearly. Currently in the best of health, Liz and her doctors attribute this to her determination, her riding and her healthy lifestyle. Liz’s absolute favourite Kelato product that has improved the lovely Lizzie out of sight has been ZanoBOLIC! She has watched her muscle development over the last few months and has been very impressed. Liz says, She isn't the easiest horse to build and maintain muscle, but with ZanoBOLIC I believe this has been possible! "Another winning product for me has also been GastroHEALTH! Best of all, this very fussy horse has welcomed GastroHEALTH into her daily diet. I also just can't believe the shine in her coat since starting her on these products. She is feeling great on the inside and looking even better on the outside!

12.01.2022 Think we can all relate to this!

10.01.2022 *FOR SALE* 17" Black X-Prestige Helen K Monoflap Bought brand new in September 2015 ... Very sad sale as I absolutely love this saddle. However, it is no longer suited to my horse. There is some fading in the back of the seat, where the colour appears brown. This is an easy fix with a good deep oil, however I just haven't had the time yet to do that It has calfskin leather, which gives you a nice secure feel. This saddle has saved me many a time on some hairy rides on numerous horses https://www.prestigeitaly.com/en/p/X-PRESTIGE_HELEN_K.xhtml RRP: $5695 Asking price:$3900 NEG
