‘We have a 12hh nine-year-old Exmoor gelding called Bumble. He came to us on loan and never went home! We paid the princely sum of £1 for him. He’s a gem, so brave, a great character and he adores my daughter Sophie. We both ride him and do all sorts with him. He’s a dab hand at in-hand showing with her and a cracking little jumper for me. We’ve just started doing some classical riding techniques with him and he takes it all in. I think we will be doing dressage soon.’ — Helen Eshelby
