hi nothing to add except you are proving a theory of mine, that most people would have fun on a cob..........................as for oats if you want to get more from them lightly cook them, this increases digestibility of them, you can make a small batch in a microwave light porridge and let it cool, i use to add micronised linseed to the feed as well.

another thought is depending on the timings between classes a small feed? she will have used up her glycogen store in the muscle and blood glucose thigh might be an easy way to re balance? i don't mean high sugar mixes or loads of it, just enough to increase the available energy for her, look at it as the orange between halfs we use to have a school when playing hockey/football

thanks, yes if we have long enough i always try to make sure she has plenty of stuff she likes to munch on, but this time we only had 30 mins between tests so not really time to do anything except get changed! I think it's likely that fitness (mental and physical) is probably the biggest factor at this point. We'll figure it out

even with short spaces you can give a snack, to keep the blood sugar level,because it will maintain her concentration, brain department fatigue is one of the dangers of low blood sugar.

Bit late to the party but I have only just seen this! Oooohmygosh!

Super well done to you both, amazing achievement! Kira is such a credit to you and is such a good example of what can be done with correct and sympathetic training. You really are an inspiring pair. I remain hopeful that we will be able to learn flying changes and perhaps at least ride one correctly

Go team Pink-pony!! Keep it up!
