with really good positive comments from judge, which matches our schooling programme and what was also nice is that it was same judge as before and had seen a good improvement in rider which i'm very pleased with for freind.
Dressage is a funny old game i really wish i knew when i do a real uck test or really fab one in judges eyes

, but i was chuffed with my 'little sweet pea'. We really do need to be out there getting used to different venues etc.... Cos i almost didn't go last nite, cos of posting on here about 'pot hunting' but i'm glad i did cos as i came back with lots of positive thoughts/acts about boths horse and really that's what competeting about for me see progression

Well done!!! You shouldn't feel bad about competing at RC, or posting your achievements on here. 68% is a fantastic mark unaff or aff and you should be proud of your nags and the work you've put in.
 
Well Done, ignore the people who make comments about pothunters, it is just an excuse as to why they don't get placed, they forget that how they actually perform has an effect on whether they get placed or not.
 
ta - i'm really more interested in my horse performance really, and don't really care to much about 'pothunter comments' as i will use it as a positive comment and it gives me an edge straight away
