Yikes-at grand old age of 41, am doing my first ever dressage test tomorrow!
its only a fun show and Im doing it on my sons 13h pony (mainly because cantering a 20m circle on my ditsy mare is a bit of a challenge!) but its a first for me! Am sure I will forget the course. As long as I dont fall off and embarrass myself in front of the children :)

Have fun :) Remember to breathe, and if you can manage it, smile, especially as you go down the centre line - makes a good impression on the judge :)

actually was great fun, didnt fall off or forget course, did have trouble keeping canter going but then found growling worked well! Very appreciative audience (was fun show with bbq lunch) who did lots of clapping.
Might even do it again!

Sounds great, miggy - I forgot the test the first three tests I did, at least .... You were brilliant.
