In the run up to my ode, thought i would take my new girly to a couple of shows etc.
Registered her for BSJA as that is what she has done previously ( I haven't as you will be able to tell later on in this post)
What a day, thought i would go to Southview EC, nice place and it was first outdoors.
Got there and my class was third and they were still on jump off of first (great i thought - plenty of time)
Four hours later (i had got on two hours earlier to walk round and give her a general view of what was going on) and my class had still not run.
I fell off in the practice arena, because she tends to jump out of her skin to begin with (v embarassed and bruised
)
Eventually got into ring and each fence we came to our hearts just weren't in it anymore (so got eliminated
)
It was such a shame, shes only a baby, but the really positive thing out of all this was that she was very good in the practice arena, didn't nap in the sj arena and was very quiet to travel - even though we were eliminated i am really pleased with how sensible and good she was (yeh for her)
But i had no idea that BSJA comps are soooo looonnggg.....is this the case with all of them, because it was a week day thought there may be less people ( how wrong could i be )
Thats why i event, theres always a time given!!!!
Anyway off for a warm Radox bath and horsey is very tired so gave her a lovely deep bed and lots of pats and food before i went home, she knows she was good really!!
