The Cure in Pure ( Episode 5) : 'they wont speak, they'll show' pennys approach.

  Penny's commonly used phrase, "Listen to them, they won't speak, they'll show," is more than just a catchy phrase; it's the cornerstone of her approach to animal care, particularly evident in her interactions with horses. It's a philosophy that shifts the focus from simply managing animals to truly understanding and responding to their innate communication. As we witnessed on Monday, this principle yielded a remarkable outcome. The team observed one of the horses exhibiting a peculiar behavior: consistently seeking out and eating the bark and leaves of trees around the field, while her grazing companions remained focused on the grass. This wasn't just a casual nibble; it was a persistent, almost driven pursuit of something the horse seemed to be missing. When the team brought this to Penny's attention, her response perfectly encapsulated her philosophy: "She must be missing something, a nutrient or mineral that she knows she needs and she ca...

Results 2025 : Northern Ireland Festival

A Triumphant Saturday at the Northern Ireland Festival! Saturday dawned early, a 4 am start setting the stage for an easy day at the Northern Ireland Festival in the prestigious Cavan Equestrian Center. With a limited team on board of only one horse, we were more than ready and relaxed for the day ahead. The day began with a thrilling opportunity for Penny Hudson Kelly. Offered the ride of Katie Crozier's magnificent 'DARROWBY COUGAR' in the main ring's Novice Intermediate Championship, Penny rose to the challenge with remarkable poise. She quickly and expertly adapted to her new mount, demonstrating a natural horsemanship that was truly inspiring. Her ride was nothing short of impressive, culminating in a well-deserved Reserve Champion title in this competitive class. Witnessing Penny's talent shine through, even on a new partnership, filled us with immense pride. The successes continued with Charlotte Kelly and the stunning 'HUDSONS MUCARELLI ROSA'. In the...

Throwback Tuesdays : Dalibhunga Mandella, 11 years on the team

  Welcome to another Throwback Tuesday! Over the last month or two, we've seen Penny make a spectacular comeback in the jumping arena after a three-year hiatus, and it's sparked countless questions about the origins of her jumping journey. Today, we take a delightful detour down memory lane to revisit the legendary 'Dalibhunga Mandella,' a true icon in the world of showing and working hunter.  It was eleven years ago when a seven-year-old Penny first met Mandella, who was then on loan from the Nugent family. This incredible pony had been under their care since he was just a foal, and his journey had been nothing short of remarkable. At the time, Penny had been riding a different pony for a few months, but unfortunately, that experience had left her feeling somewhat disheartened. The pony had knocked Penny's confidence considerably, leading her to become hesitant about jumping and riding in general. When Mandella arrived, he brought with him an air of promise and ass...
