Larkhill part 1

[Bossanova]

Got the worst bit over and done with!
She warmed up lovely, felt really good and pretty focused.
Literally just as I was about to start I heard a pack of hounds, huntsman's horn and about 20 kids gallop across the racecourse just below the dressage. Moon heard too and Moon rather likes hunting!
It wasnt dreadful, she tried hard but was naturally a little distracted. She went back to her green habits- head up into canter but she was much straighter than last week and the canterwork was better.
She scored a fairly mid-range 38.6

The course is pretty nice, odd mix of very easy and pretty challenging but loking forwards to riding it tomorrow morning

Good luck .Have a great day

 

[madhector]

well done in the dreaded dressage

good luck tomorrow, have a fab day!

 

[Weezy]

Well done for holding it together, we would have been in the next county

What bad luck. 38.6 is good - considering. The only time I did dressage up there my horse kept staring across the vast distant plains and was very distracted as well. All that open space doesn't make your life easy - let alone a pack of hounds....

 

[RachelB]

What a good girl for holding it together! Hope you both have fun doing the interesting bits tomorrow!

 

[Irishcobs]

Well done. You would of thought the hunt would of kept away knowing the HT were on.
Good luck tomorrow. I'm looking forward to meeting Moon.

Boss - I agree about the xc some really easy, some more challenging...mine is quite green so we'll see what happens!

 

[seabiscuit]

Good luck for tomorrow!!
Frightfully annoying about the hounds, I would be livid!!

 

[poggio]

well done, not a bad dressy score considering!

hope you're having fun today... lovely weather again!
