    News on Summer and thank god for mothers!

    I agree with thank goodness for mothers! I don't know how I would cope without mine, although she has never even sat on a horse! She still runs me half way around the country and back 3/4 days a week and helps me pay for it all! Couldn't cope without her!

    What's your opinion on studs?

    Why just behind for dressage? Don't mean that in a negative way! It's just I have an event next week for the first time *eep* and would love to know what options would be best for my horsey! Dressage is the one I am most worried about!

    Show Sunday... Advice

    Depends on your horse! I have three horses that I compete SJ, and never really jump at home! We only hack/flatwork at home and then jump at competitions, except if we are working on something like speed rounds, skinnys etc :p

    Aww serious? That's hardly fair, we've had a judge snigger once when I smiled after my test as I was pretty pleased! Apparently not everyone appreciates enjoying it haha

    So what would you classify as a "good" dressage score?

    I know everyone has their own personal "good" scores, I'm happy if I'm at 65% :p But what would you classify as a good score? For example, in school 80% = A, 70% = B etc, so you always know how your doing! However, since dressage competitions can vary greatly depending on who's...
