Here it is... *drum roll* PF's and my fall on 31st July

Yes, and personally I'd rather break than have my horse break, but hey ho... could've been worse.
2 weeks isn't too bad. I had the blinking sling (on and off

) for 6 weeks
 
of course.... I wanted the first aider to hurry up so I could check my pone who was being led back to the box

He did a good job of skinning his nose and was stiff after but otherwise ok.

I have fingers crossed for my rexray next monday.
 
I think you were very unlucky with that fence! She seemed to be jumping really sweetly up until then and I completely agree, she looked like she was going to put another stride in, then changed her mind but it was too late and effectively landed in the jump! Really bad luck!

But glad you are both on the mend now!

It looks to me that as those 3 fences were one after another she was just 'bowling' on a bit. She did go to chip in but was going a bit too fast to manage it and just went to jump anyway (what a good honest girly)
It really was just an unlucky fall.

I'm glad to here you are on the mend.
 
God, that was just VERY unlucky!!

you were both going beautifully up until that point!

Having watched that video I cannot believe how similar PF is to Poppy- its uncanny! They both look exactly the same and would both have exactly the same way of going. I wonder if I put Poppy to Cigar's daddy I would get my own little Cigar too? !

I have VERY bad luck at that particular comp; first time PF fell in the trailer on the second day. At least this time I got to compete 2 out of 3 days!

She was going well, wasn't she?

I know! They are VERY alike!!! What's Poppy's breeding like?
This is PF

Daddy Cigar has been sold to the US, so the Little Cigar could well be one of his very last foals in Argentina.
 

Blimey,, ouch

Looks to my (very novice) eyes that she tried to squeeze a short stride in, what a shame I thought you were going brilliantly.

Hope you are both back on form soon
