New saddler at the bench

We are pleased to announce that we have welcomed a new saddler to the bench.

Martin Jones has joined us from a 32 year career as a saddler at Jeffries, so there is no doubt of the experience and expertise that he brings with him.

With many thanks to you all, we are fortunate to have been busy in the past few months "touch wood". This will help to ease the pressure on keeping our delivery times to the usual 3-4 weeks.

Lorna's July update

Lorna Hogg and De Marco's - news update on her new Celeste saddle July 2009.
"I have just returned from the Home International and Celtic Challenge after successfully completing another 2 day 160km ride this time for the Scottish Team. Scotland were 2nd in both events! Really delighted once again, especially since the conditions were less than ideal. I guess Kay also told you how much muscle he has put on across his back!! It was quite amazing to see! The new girth - wow it feels fab!"

Hickstead and BSPS Working Hunter sponsorship

The Black Country Saddles BSPS Supreme Working Hunter Pony Championship went to Mrs Sloan’s Highgrove Valentino ridden by Stuart Sloan who had travelled all the way from Scotland, so a trip worthwhile. Mostly the weather held off for the show and attendance was as good as ever.
Our own sponsored rider Cassie Hartley was placed a credible 8th in The Jackson Homes/BSPS Intermediate Large Show Riding Championship riding the 8 year old Classic Coincidence.

Lorna's Golden Horse Shoe

The Celeste Endurance/dressage has just won its first Golden Horse Shoe. Congratulations to Lorna Hogg from Inverurie, Scotland who recently won the ultimate test of endurance riding 160km over 2 days across Exmoor on her 13 year old gelding De Marco (TB x Welsh). Lorna had the Celeste fitted by Kay Hastilow, since then has seen a great improvement "it is certainly working for us – his back is so soft and supple and looks great after a ride!" Lorna has represented the winning Scottish Team on 3 occasions and also competes De Marco in affiliated dressage with this saddle representing Findon Riding Club at the Riding Club Championships.
