On a bit of a roll at the moment!

21.5 dressage, absolutely flying, awesome SJ round (all those lessons with Chris Burton finally paying off!) and his usual confident XC round. We finished on 24.7 as I didn't hammer him round the XC due to a few areas of less than ideal ground (I don't envy any event organiser getting the ground just right with the weather we've had recently!) Can't believe we won a BE100! What an awesome final run before Badminton and another Regionals qualification for this year. Next stop - BADMINTON!!!!!

Very well done. Although you say that the cross country didn't have corners, etc. was it long for that level? The hatcam was great and seemed to last for ages. A very good work-out for Badminton.

We've been on a bit of a journey since I first turned up hunting on that little orange pony. He started me on this road and Monty has finished it. I never thought I'd be eventing, let alone winning at BE100 and planning on trying a Novice!

Well done both of you, a great photograph to go with the rosette!! All the very best for Badders! Oh and that XC was seriously twisty!
