HOYS qualified show horse, Chique and her right hand companion, Lily have been in the picture lately after modelling the exciting new range of KTY 5 A-Day rugs.
Unable to keep the dynamic duo apart, the inseparable pair appeared together during the photo-shoot at show rider and producer, Sarah Ambler’s yard near Halifax.
A highly successful Small Riding Horse, Chique was chosen as the perfect model for the KTY 5 A-Day rugs which are proving a big hit from the equestrian.com stable.
But the photo-shoot couldn’t happen without her larger than life side kick, Lily who would sleep in the same stable if she could.
Said Sarah: “When we first got Chique she had never really been out in a field and would panic without another horse or pony, so Lily became her soul mate and now they go everywhere together.
“Lily arrived as a gift from a friend, but at the time she had laminitis and then managed to get colic and we thought we were going to lose her. We called the vet and fortunately she pulled through, she is such a star and great fun to have around.
“It was funny watching the two of them on the photo-shoot and quite difficult to get photographs of Chique on her own.
“When you are riding Chique in the arena Lily is very happy to trot along behind her and they would definitely share a stable together if I let them.”
Now seven-years-old, Chique has had a fantastic season in Small Riding Horse classes winning at the North of England Spring Show, Northern British Show Horse Association Spring Show, Lincolnshire Show, North of England Summer Show, Aintree and also taking second place at the Great Yorkshire Show.
After the early spring season, Sarah also had to undergo extensive knee surgery so she is even more delighted with their success.
Added Sarah: “Everyone really enjoyed the KTY 5 A-Day photo-shoot with Chique and Lily providing a lot of entertainment at the same time.”
TheKTY5 A-Day range will certainly help you to brighten up your horse or ponies wardrobe this winter.
The new collection, aptly named ‘5 A-Day’, boasts some bright colour ways including colours Apple and Grape along with the more traditional Navy with a hint of fruit.
