To the point, i didn't qualify!

Well got there early thurs morn rode him rode to chill him out and had a jump, he was rather fresh.

Then my class was later that day, he was jumping fab in the collecting giving everything loads.
Went in the ring and really started backing off, and felt really scared. He jumped the first and second really sticky so i moved him on after the 2nd then he had the 3rd down

then jumped round clear, bloody typical! But to be fair to him, i rode like a pleb

Friday- day off rode him twice as he was majorly fresh, and after 2 rides he was still prancing round snorting, with me sitting on top laughing

Saturday- speed class, we decided to go for a clear but keep turning rather than going flat out!
He jumped amazing, and had gotten over the stagefright

Went clear in 54.something and missed out on qualifying by 1 n 1/2 secs

But was really pleased with him today

and i rode a lot better too!!

So we got home about 1 hour ago as mom and dad are off to barcelona tomorrow, lucky sods!
