So, i was nervous today! (no change there then) mostly because i had a few friends of mine come to watch....
Anyway - we arrived in good time and the weather seemed fine so all was well!! I watched the BN then went to walk the course for my class - the disco. It walked fine, a few lines i thought i might have to watch but the height looked good (maybe im getting used to jumping the disco, they no longer look so big!!) and the arena is soooo big it gives lots of thinking time!
So i warmed up and it started to rain!
She still warmed up well and im really pleased as we are starting to work together now. I watched the person before me go round and the heavens opened!! No matter, i went in anyway and she was a little star!! The rain was horrendous really, but she jumped really really well. We went clear!! As soon as i was done, the sun came out. Typical.
We weren't fast enough to get placed, but im pretty sure it was the last double clear we needed to qualify for the second rounds (need to check!!) and i was really happy as a few weeks ago i was having problems. Plus we've only been a team for the past 2 and a half months!!
NC - here we come!!
We got very wet!!
Last jump which i got wrong (hence the looking down and doggy position!!) But she still jumped it bless her!
