"This is Milo aka "Just a Cob", a nine-year-old with a heart of gold. I have owned Milo since he was a just broken five-year-old, after a nasty fall, which resulted in a fractured pelvis and a loss of confidence. I was halfway through my GCSEs and after my science exam my mum showed me Milo's advert. He was nothing that I wanted — he was literally a set of hairy legs! But I went along to avoid my revision and fell in love. When I pulled a gangly cob off the trailer I was met with bewilderment and confusion. The plan was to have him for a year and sell him on once I got my confidence back. No one thought he would jump, least of all me. We kept trying and we kept practising and one day it all clicked. That day we were determined to prove the stereotypes wrong. Milo has always tried his best to please and his bravery and enthusiasm still shocks people on the show circuit. I went in search of my dream horse and came back with a traditional cob!"
