Aintree Show-Jumping report.

[Haflinger]

Had a good day - they were running on time for once!

Anyway, she loaded well and arrived in good time for my first class, the 2'9ft. Walked the course which was lovely and well built

She warmed up so well, nice and calm! Went in and did a very nice clear - good rythm and nice and steady

Waited for a while and then went in for the jump off after warming up again. I was first to go, and she did another clear and very fast in 18.70 I think it was. Sadly went down to 3rd place in the end, but all the top 3 were within less of half a second!
After we'd walked the 3'3ft course, warmed up and the jump off had blown her brains a little bit, so she was full of it!

Went in and went clear again, but a little speedy

First to go in the jump off again, had a good time but just tapped the second part of the double, so 4 faults, but ended up 4th

So very pleased with her - the photographer was there so there will be pics from there, and I will put the vids up tomorrow hopefully

I hate Bold with a passion, went last month, just to go somewhere different, was relieved that my boy was great and we don't need to go back until August for the BE!!!!!
Ps my mum is course builder and judge at Warren farm!
