Good day out.
Tavia was 4th in the open elementary qualifier and 4th overall. Bit tired in the Elementary festival championship but still got a respectable score to finish 11th.
Peri was an absolute star :D
Despite the heavens opening in the middle of our test (this is the I HATE being wet horse) and my hair scrunchie escaping and bouncing off her rump (she didn't even flicker) she went really well and WON the Advanced Medium qualifier. Beat loads of horses that usually beat her, including my trainer's advanced horse. :D
Had a couple of hiccups in the Advanced class -thick Mummy went the wrong way :rolleyes: - and we did a rather interesting halt at the end that looked more like a crash landing - the result of horse thinking there was more to do and ignoring Mum ! Still managed a respectable score just short of 62% and 6th place (and an annoying 1 mark short of 5th place - remember the deduction of 2 marks for the wrong course!)
Lots of hugs and Polos for the girls last night.
