We went to Duckhurst today for some BSJA...Am Second Rounds to be precise.
Trike jumped the 90cms, and once again jumped his heart out for me
In a field of 35 or so, with 19 in the JO, he finished 13th with yet another Double Clear. He couldn't keep pace with the speed merchants there and missed qualification for the National Finals by just 3 places
Here's some video of him jumping :-

Bo was supposed to be contesting the 1.10m Second Round but as we have had some issues of late it was touch and go whether we would or not. As it happenned we ran out of time to jump the 1.10m, but on the basis of what happenned in the 1.05m i don't think we would have bothered anyway
He warmed up okay but was clearly wary of the oxer. The first fence was a straghtforward fence...albeit an oxer...and he came to it, and a stride out took one look and slammed the brakes on...then cat leapt it taking most of it with him. The rest of the round was a battle to get him jumping...and he did get round the rest of it clear...but clearly something has happenned to shatter his confidence again

I'm struggling to understand what is going on with him just now. He has so much talent, but so little brain sometimes
