Champion Equestrian Wear

Running a training business is busy work! Most mornings my helmet goes on my head when I get on the first horse, and it doesn’t come off until I’m getting in the car to go home. And if I’m going to get really honest here- sometimes I forget to take my helmet off until I get home. I often get strange looks from people, but I think they might just be envious of my Champion Equestrian Wear helmet.

If you’re interested in trying out the most comfortable helmet I’ve ever worn, feel free to use my code BHEBETS15 at checkout for a 15% discount. Alternatively, you can message me for a printable coupon to use at your local tack shop.

Bucas blankets

I’m going to let you in on a little secret… This is the first year that Zulu hasn’t destroyed his blanket! I love Bucas blankets for so many reasons, but the fact that they are INDESTRUCTIBLE is at the top of the list!

US Event Horse Futurity Vlog

Excited to participate in The US Event Horse Futurity with Jess Sappenfield ‘Island Nominee’ ! Check out his first Vlog

Voltaire Design

Even in tricky weather, I don’t have to worry in my Voltaire Design saddles. You wouldn’t believe all of the thought and design that goes into it these lightweight saddles- I especially love my Lexington jump saddle. Voltaire has taken horse and rider anatomy into account and has truly created something that feels like you are part of your horse. There is nothing quite like riding in a Voltaire.

CDCTA Spring Horse Trials

We spent Easter 🐰🌸 with some awesome horses, their fantastic people, and the wonderful staff and volunteers at CDCTA Horse Trials. I am so proud of all of these horses and riders!  

Tori Rosenblatt and ‘Paris Lady’ had a confident first outing in Open Novice- I can’t wait to see what this pair does in the future.

Mousse at CDCTA Spring Horse Trials

All the pieces are slowly starting to come together for this cheeky baby horse! Mousse had a nice confident run at CDCTA’s novice where he had one of his best show jump rounds to date!! Dressage is still a work in progress as he has lots of opinions about the need to half halt 🙈😂 but couldn’t be happier with how grown up and mature he is this year!

Bucas blankets

Show season is rolling at home, and I think it’s finally time to pack up our Bucas blankets (someone knock on wood 🤞) and pull out our Bucas fly sheets. I can’t wait to see my herd out in their Bucas Buzz Off Fly Gear from Toklat Originals. Plus they are always stylish in their zebra print. Don’t be scared of a little pattern! Research shows that flies certainly are. I am 1000% behind anything that keeps my horses from stomping all summer.

Draw It Out Horse Health Care Solutions

We all know that chestnuts have unnecessarily sensitive skin- and the sweet Island Nominee is no exception! That’s why I turn him out with Rapid Relief Restorative Cream from Draw It Out Horse Health Care Solutions slathered up and down those beautiful white legs. Honestly, we turn all of our horses with white legs out like that- and we haven’t had even a whisper of rain rot since we started!

Morven Park Horse Trials

‘Stuck on Gold’ had a ✨fantastic✨ run around Morven Park’s prelim track this past weekend! He really gained a lot of confidence in each phase, and landed with a 6th place finish in a large Open Preliminary-B!

Special thanks to all of the volunteers who braced the cold and windy weather- without you there is no event!

Thank you to my sponsors and everyone who came out this weekend to cheer us on!
