Just took Hatts to Nurstead for a nice easy run round the PN after our first Novice run two weeks ago. Nothing earth shattering to say really

She did a decidedly mediocre dressage which i was frankly annoyed about as i know i can ride her sooooooo much better - so was on 35.5 which left us in the top 8ish after dressage. Onto the SJing and madam definitely tried her luck in there!

Gave at least 3 fences the tiniest of rubs with her front feet which annoyed me as yesterday took her to pyecombe to jump a 1m 2phase as we havent jumped anything for 2 weeks and she jumped double clear! Anyway we managed a clear today by the skin of our teeth and i really had to work for every fence

Onto the XC which was lovely as usual and gave a nice ride

Madam was being a complete plonker in the warm up with her finale being a full on rear up the hill as a horse cantered towards her, while i was half way through altering my stirrup so i only had one hand on the reins

honestly!! Anyway she gave me a lovely ride XC, I didnt really get after her on the time stakes and so consequently we ended up with 4time which pushed us from 4th to 8th place. Still pleased though as another double clear and a nice rossie to bring home aswell

Hope those of you jump judging etc. enjoyed the lovely weather and didnt have any heart attacks when a certain ginger baggage jumped your fence

Well done Abbie

We had a great day fence judging today, we was at fence 7, it was causing no end of trouble all day and every single horse bar about 3 hitting it

lots left a leg, had our hearts in our mouths!! Did see you at the results area but you was talking so didnt want to interrupt

Well done Abbie.

I arrived for my SJ stewarding just as the SJ commentator announced your clear!

I was better dressed this time with sun glasses and hat - to cover up my still very sunburnt face from yesterday!!
 
Thanks everyone

Holly - yes Hattie slowed up quite a bit before jumping it - think it must have been something to do with them seeing the dark down hill bit that they had to go down on landing!

Well done! Good luck at Mattingley.

Do you know who the onsite photographer was? I was grooming for a friend on the sat novice, but we didn't get round to looking at photos.
 
Thank you!
