Just thought I waould share my success from a show I attended today.
It was an afternoon show, so I was able to spend the morning clipping, washing, sewing plaits etc. I was meant to ride my grey hack (16.2hh - Sass) only to notice that he had hurt himself overnight. My housemate then urged me to take my brown hack (15.3hh - Suave). I was a bit skeptical because I haven't ridden Suave for 6 weeks!!!
Well imagine my surprise when we won champion hack of the show and I was awarded champion rider. I was really proud of Suave cause he can be a bit 'hot' sometimes and blow up. We missed out on supreme hack of the show due to me pushing too hard in my lengthened trot. All in all I was very lucky to have him behave so well without any work.
I hope all those competing this weekend do so successfully.
Cheers
