Welcome to Hickstead, home to both Seven Oak Stables, and Blue Acre - two rival stables. Both offer opportunities for their clients to reach the highest level of excellence. Each stable differs from the other, so choose wisely and never forget, loyalty is everything... Meanwhile as the stables battle it out, there's trouble brewing at the university. Be careful, if you don't pick a side you may get caught in the cross-fire...

Lily was keen to see how Rory had been getting on since last time they'd had a lesson - though it was a different horse, she hoped that her instruction had been useful enough to apply to Rory's other ride. She found she was often able to apply the same principles, unless she was working on something specific with her horses. She was curious as to whether there was anything Rory wanted to work on today and so she'd kept the exercise relatively simple so she could adapt it if needed - a couple of uprights and a couple of oxers, with one being a double across the centre of the school. She could move things but generally she'd be able to make things testing if Rory needed a challenge, or they could work on the simple things if they needed.

The breeding manager made sure the foaling barn was in order before she switched her focus to Joy. Rory's job was keeping her busy as it was Spring time, but she made herself sign up for lessons to focus on her own two horses.
With the help of a groom, the dark bay mare was ready for their eventing lesson. It was their weakest of the three events, but they were willing to put in the work. Rory double checked the brush boots, which matched their saddle pad before leading the mare by the reins to the outdoor arena. She smiled when she saw Lily, opening the arena gate before letting the mare in - closing the gate behind them.
"Hi again, now you get to meet Joy. She is less spunky than Merlin, but she does love her job." Rory had finally gotten the mare out of her shy personality - one that she had for quite sometime before she rescued her. "How have you been lately?" She fixed her stirrups before getting on the mare, using the mounting block close by.
