Olympic Dressage Third Session Thread.

i've been on xc training with Scotty, he was fantastic. so enthusiastic and positive, a real "get on with it" attitude.
he used to have bets with his working pupils on whether they'd get fewer time penalties than him xc etc.

I went on a Course walk with him at Badminton this year. He had his pupils with him who were competing, and he was a really great speaker. Really felt like he hadn't lost a single bit of drive for the sport since he stopped competing. Fantastic to listen to.

I can here snoring from everyroom, I'm rather jealous. But I can't miss Mary do her test

 

[kerilli]

Totsie's still last after dressage, as it should be, just checked. poor guy, did well to stay on it actually.

 

[PeanutButterDragon]

I really think it will be close when it comes to the medals

 

[Rachel_M]

Just needs a rider to have a few stops XC and it all changes.

[jules89]

My cat will start to snore soon.

 

[Calvo]

[kerilli]

[Rachel_M]

I am, unfortunately, just about to pour my xth cup of tea and shall be buzzing all the way to my bedroom, where I can look forward to staring at the ceiling all night, whilst running through the dressage test, complete with copycat movements!

 

[PeanutButterDragon]
