Hi Abbie - thats fantastic - I thought you would win!!

I was standing with your mum as she went through the water and she did look as though she was doing pigeon steps and didnt want to be rushed

I was meant to be riding a baby today but she would not load and Saf still off work so no rides till Great Tew

how irritating that the baby wouldnt load!!
frown.gif
didnt realise Saf was off work?
confused.gif


she stormed down to that brush fence with the funny horn of brush down the middle of it!! we very nearly ended up jumping the huge horn bit because i wanted to jump the right hand side and she fancied the left hand side - i won in the end

Thank you, This was her 6th event this year. She was 5 a few weeks ago and is really starting to come together
smile.gif
 
thankyou
wink.gif
bless Hattie though!! she couldnt care less - she seems to love eventing, she's a pretty bright mare and has learnt very quickly, though she's particularly good at selective hearing!! she barely knows her name and we've had her a year!!
blush.gif
and i dont know whether she actually listens when i tell her how well she's done!! she doesnt half baffle me!!!

ihad the exact same thingatte hedge thing, he actually aimed for the middle though! Had to pull him to the right !
I was number 177 and was with saf for most of the day! Saf told me that she had seen you ad how pro you looked but i missed you!
I was dragging round the dog for most of the day, a large beige/light brown bull mastiff x, you would have heard me going "oska come on" constantly!
Well done for the ££££, all helps !
 
Haven't read all replies (you def get prize for most replies!), but very well done. Don't worry about the water, it's really important like with everything else to establish the basics. Deco was never 100% about water, but I just had to keep repeating the basics (walking in and out on a long rein, walking down small drops etc) even when she was advanced...
 
Wow, well done! Hattie is such a good little mare. Ground was awful up here too, my gelding doesn't have shoes on the back and was slipping all over the place at riding club sj. Saw one horse slip on landing and go over in the warm-up, studs were def. needed! x
 
Thank you very much everyone!!! ive passed on the well dones to Hattsy!!

hope she was listening to me
