Well this was interesting!
Wanted to end the season on a good note as have had a couple of falls lately so went to ardingly.
My horse was really going well and we were both throughly enjoying ourselves when DIASASTER STRUCK on the run up to the coffin started to steady and SNAP goes my stirrup leather! jump judge runs over to fetch it and i ask if anything can be done to fix it. Jump judge says yes if i dont mind riding short. I say no thats fine stirrup and i are reunited they restart me and away we go! First fence to jump and this is an uphill coffin, went fine, next fence was on more level ground when i realise just how short my stirrups are and nearly rise out of the stirrups past my horses head!
Anyway sense kicked in and went clear. The jump judges said they would adjust my time but i didnt get to stay to hear the results!
Why can i never come back from an event without a having a story to tell!
