Well i never thought i would get to write this, ever since brought my little horse i've been keen as mustard to take him ODE with the aim of BE..ing him, but we had issues so we've done lots of dressage and BD him.
Well warmed up like a idiot ,as field was full of thisltes which he was jumping, to which i was peeing myself laughing at - what a do...........nut

, but did calm down and then did a sweet test, rush and got ready for SJ. Again he got stressed but this time by whizzy ponies

so half the round blooming yuck and other half sweet, so we had 2 down. And then back to to change PDQ for XC phase, got down to start but this point he was leaping around like said loony

, but did a beautiful clear round and his target system has now developed and boy, he was a super star. I'm soo......... chuffed with him as it' s his first ever event. I thought i was a good xc course with defo questions at end.
Got back to box and sorted him, put him back in and then went to see results, to be greeted by folks saying fab score

,(gg left on sign) brought as project to sell six months later, BUT couldn't part with him, cos he's the sweetest, sentative horse out and such a character. So i've just taken my time with him.
Decided to start playing at dressage with him did well so reg him last year and now has points. Have gone back to jumping him, cos i want to BE him. I'm ok on flat and ok with xc it's jump coloured poles i need help with, but this summer will be going to all the local show to sort this one out
