Dani and friends


Danilon at Ednovean Farm

Dani has a perfect position just at the entrance to the little stable yard beside the house. All comings and goings must pass his close daily scrutiny and each day Charles likes to pause with Dani's first colt foal son and the pair gaze at each other until the imperious whinnying of April summons little Archie to bed at her side.




Archie meets Dani




"My word" he could be saying
p.s i did have hold of the brood mare in the other hand when taking this picture

Dani is working towards his August Dressage clinic with Peter Madison Greenwell - his trot is getting bigger, his engagement through his downward transitions is improving..........and i am getting distinctly nervous as usual at the prospect of Peter's scrutiny!

  1. Strategic position...
    Exciting with the training. What is the date?

  2. Friday the 21st of August for three days - somehow we thought it ws the following weekend and we had more time to tie up the loose ends of our work. I'll try to get some pictures and do a daily write up but at the moment I don't think my pelvis is flat enough yet to acheive those elusive flying changes.
