Well I was looking at the results section in todays Irish Field, and the results from the April 9th hunter trials were in there and I was going through them to see if I knew anyone who had been placed, and in the Novice Pairs I saw my partner and I's name! I couldn't believe it, we actually came 3rd in the novice pairs! Over the moon!

I thought we had done really badly so didn't stick around, so I missed out on a rosette and a small prize, damn

Ah well, I'll have my name in the results section to look back onto that day

It's only a tiny section but a name's a name

awww, well done! I know how you feel. The same happened to me when i was doing combined training last yr at my local riding club. I left before the end thinking i had done rubbish, but actually came 4th!
 
was that the one where you were in the lead and the man on the bigger horse was way behind you?
well done on coming 3rd hope you get your rosette and prize
