The pair were back in action today after weeks of rest and recuperation for Oscar. Aston Le Walls was the venue for Oscar's come back and he, & Richard, came back in style! The pair finished only their 4th event on the podium in a brilliant 3rd place. Oscar was very fresh and excitable meaning that although he received his best dressage test result to date, it could have been even better...

An accident while SJ training means that Oscar is out of action for at least 6 weeks. Although not seriously injured, swelling in a rear leg needs treatment and box rest. However, the vet is confident that Oscar will make a full recovery. Richard is devastated and has to cancel competition entries, but he realises that Oscar's future is more important than any short term goals.

 
 

 
 
Here's a list of the events that Richard is currently planning to complete with Oscar.
