My first attempt at Dressage! (good report too!)

Now have a picture!



It was my first ever dressage competition and turned up expecting to be crap and started being nervous once I realised I was the only person with a coloured cob (there was another gorg little grey native pony I would I loved to have taken hom! lol)

I needn't have worried too much as I actually got a score better than I though I was gunna get.. I was thinking 50% ish

In P4 I got 62.73%!! I got an 8 in my first ever movement down the centre line! how I managed to get it pretty much straight!?

In the comments the judge wrote Correctly Ridden, horse needs more suppleness (she a bit set in her ways but she is becoming more suppler as times goes on) Nice horse with quite good regular paces (so very promising!)

In P7, I got 63% this time but didnt get an 8 this time but plenty of 6s and 7s thrown in!!

Judge wrote good regular paces but lacks bend etc etc so am abso pleased how my little coloured mare went!!
