The Week from Hell: Tough Updates on Winnie & Jam

Hey everyone, this isn’t the kind of update I was hoping to share, but as we all know, the journey with horses can be full of unexpected challenges. A few weeks ago, we had what felt like the week from hell, with three of our horses needing vet visits. In this video, I’ll be giving you all the details, focusing on Winnie and Jam.

Winnie, our superstar, unfortunately took a slip in the field and has had to take some time off work. It’s been a bit of a setback, but she’s in good hands, and I’m optimistic about her recovery.

The news about Jam, though, is the hardest to share. I had such big plans for her this year, but sadly, those plans have come crashing down. Jam has suffered two injuries that mean her eventing season is coming to a premature end. It’s been a tough pill to swallow, and I know many of you have been asking about her, so I’m going into all the details in this video.

While it’s been a difficult time, I’m staying positive and focusing on the future. We’ve faced challenges before, and we’ll get through this one too. Thank you all for your continued support—it means the world to me and the horses. Stay tuned for what’s next, because we’re not giving up!
