Rider Profile - Alice Hallows

We have a new younger member of the team, it is our daughter Alice who at 11 has been riding since she was 2. Alice started on a wonderful Shetland called Minty who taught Alice many things, one of the most important was that ponies like a bit of respect from their rider, this was the foundation for her becoming a quiet, kind rider.

The next ponies who had great partnerships with Alice were lovely Gwen and mister reliable Sooty who at the grand old age of 20 knows all the tricks in the book, he is not automatic as many people think you have to be able to ride to get a tune out of him and he has to like you, but he along with Gwen have been to the Riding Club Champs at Lincoln on the Deben Team each time bringing back a rosette, 2010 Alice and Sooty the youngest and smallest in the Style Jumping class brought home a 4 th not bad for a 10 year old.

2010 has also been a good year for Alice on her young pony Outstanding Account who together have represented the Easton Harriers Pony Club at the area novice dressage 2 nd individual and the Mini Bloom trophy 3 rd individual. Alice rides some of the ponies who we have at livery whilst their owners are away at school or just to small to give them enough work so the ponies are not just being ridden by adults or lunged, in return it gives Alice a great deal of experience riding a variety of ponies.

There are a couple of 14.2hh’s waiting in the wings for Alice to grow onto , her aim is to BE event and affiliated in dressage.
