Had such a good time at the show :D

Well me and Roo ended up going to the showjumping alone tonight as Neil finished work late. So I got there and just focused on keeping Roo calm in the warm up because normally she throws in a few bucks.
Went in the novice class and she got VERY strong, couldn't get control, fence 3 was a double facing the exit to the ring, Roo jumped the double and left the ring lol, only with one foot if that, lol but we got 4 faults for it, we would have gone clear so I was

at how good she was.
Then went into the intermediate, for the last 3 shows they have had a wall in and I didn't go because it kept raining, so tonight I was excited to finally have a go, but then got nervous as I've not jumped one before, Roo just went straight over it, little superstar that she is

We also managed to stay in the ring
Then we got to fence 8 where again you have to turn away from the exit, Roo thought we were finished and broke to trot, but she soon picked up and jumped last 2 fences

We got 8 faults, but I couldn't be happier, I bought Roo a pack of polos for being so good

Well done to both of you!!

What an improvement - her weight loss is obviously agreeing with her!!

 

[RubysGold]

Thanks guys, and yes I think it is doing but she's got a long way to go yet with her weight.
Tonight reminded me why it is that Roo is my forever horse

She's soo honest, there was a fence of planks and I watched about 4 horses refuse to jump it, but Roo never ever refuses

Also, there was a jump on a dogs leg, and i forgot to look for my next fence so ended up jumping the corner of the fence lol.
