Izzy bought Bruce at the start of 2020 and enjoyed success at unaffiliated level throughout what there was of the season. The pair moved to base at DE HQ for 2021 and we are thoroughly enjoying helping this lovely combination!
They focused on some Working Hunter classes during 2021, and were very excited to qualify for HOYS, where they put in a great performance over a big, tough track! With Izzy away at Durham University, Hayley competed Bruce in some BE90 and BE100 events through 2022 and 2023 with great success, gaining multiple placings.
Bruce has enjoyed a longer winter holiday this winter, as Izzy’s university work continues to build, but they will enjoy a summer of training and competing.
Bruce is a much loved member of the Rees family, despite knowing how to put in a good spook or buck at times! He is a lovely character, and great fun to jump.
