With just 7 days to go, here are 7 tips to get yourself and your horse show-ready:
🐴 1. Keep training light – Focus on confidence, consistency and clean runs rather than pushing for more speed.
🧼 2. Get your horse sparkling – Start your grooming routine now so your horse is feeling and looking their best.
🧰 3. Check your tack & equipment – Give everything a proper once-over and make sure nothing needs replacing or repairing.
🏇 4. Practise your patterns – Know your games, patterns and lines so you can ride with confidence on the day.
💪 5. Look after yourself – Get enough sleep, stay hydrated and eat well. Your horse isn't the only athlete!
📋 6. Pack early – Make a checklist for tack, grooming supplies, clothing, boots, feed and all those little essentials.
❤️ 7. Stay calm & enjoy it! – Trust the work you've put in, trust your horse and remember why you love this sport.
Gauteng, we’re almost there! 💙💛
