Kate Taylor-Wheat - a Sydney CDI story

from Peter Haynes

KTW Dressage is delighted to announce our new sponsor Kingsland Equestrian.

Kingsland have been a well known and respected name in the world of Showjumping for many years, outfitting well known Australian Showjumper Edwina Alexander. As Kingsland looks to expand into the Dressage world, I am honoured to be given this wonderful opportunity by Jenny Alexander to wear and promote the fantastic Kingsland clothing. more...

We have some very exciting news!! World Star has been awarded:

THE 2009 NSW MEDIUM DRESSAGE HORSE OF THE YEAR

THE 2009 NSW ADVANCED DRESSAGE HORSE OF THE YEAR

This is the first time an achievement like this has occurred in Australian Dressage history.

It has been an amazing year so far with great results and success on both World Star and Oscar B and with Nationals just around the corner things are looking good.

World Star has been averaging over 70% at Medium and 70% for Advanced. With his FEI career just around the corner, everything is defiantly on track for my very special boy.

The next 12 months is going to be very exciting, with Oscar continuing on his race for WEG selection and World Star just at the start of his FEI future.

I have been feeding Mitavite for the past 2 years and could not be happier with the results. The horses love and look great on the feed and perform at their best.

The Mitavite Company is a very professional organisation, with top class advice for me at all times.

I find Pro-Sport and Xtra Cool give my competition horses and all the horses in my stable, all the daily nutritional and energy they need to perform at their best everyday. more...

One of the most common problems I see when doing clinic and just travelling around is how so many people ride in saddles that don’t fit!

I love my Vega saddles (pictured) for both World Star and Oscar B. The Vega’s fit so well and is so comfy for both horse and rider.

Riders commonly add a pad or another saddlecloth to try and make the saddle fit rather than getting the saddle to fit the horse first.

Since joining to wonderful team at Brighten Saddleworld and having Tony Flynn's expertise looking after how my saddles fit, I have discovered how crucial a proper fitting saddle is to the performance of the horse.

Tony said to me today “You wouldn’t wear two or three pairs of socks to make your shoes fit, you buy the right size.”

I highly recommend getting your saddle checked regularly as horses change and saddles wear. If you would like your saddle checked and properly fitted contact Tony or visit the Brighton Saddleworld Sydney website www.saddlery.com.au.
