Ive always said I dont like dressage, I am a jumper!:rolleyes: Thankfully ive gotten away with that on my pony.;)

But now ive been given a horse on a sort of loan, I dont have to pay for anything! Its such an opportunity!:D

This horse has done a bit of dressage and goes really nicely so ive definatly got into it! I did the pony club level D and did well. Then I tryed prelim 1 last weekend and got 65.26% and won the class, I was so happy!:D

Now ive kinda got the bug and going to try prelim 4 at a show this weekend! Dressage is great for me and the horse and im actually enjoying it!

Thats brill!! I was the same as you.. dressage for those who dont like jumping but recently ive learnt its a challenging sport!! Ive got my first two tests in a couple of weeks on a coloured cob mare (doing P4 AND P7)

your horse is gorgeous!! :cool:

Great score, well done, dressage becomes very addictive, my daughter loves it, she did Walk and Trot and Prelim 18 this week, have fun:)
