NZMHA Nationals 2026 bit of an unusual one for us this year, definitely not what was in the plans thats forsure.
Leading up to nationals I got very unwell , but also got screwed over by what we thought were friends but turns out you just never know someones ulterior motives even with people's warnings we tend to try make our own judgements benefit of the doubt well learnt this one the tough way. So in saying that our show team got drastically changed last minute so neither myself nor the horses were prepped how I would of liked. But the main thing for us was to have a great time with true friends and that we did ❤️ plus my horses did very well considering.
Can't recall alot but will put up what I can.
