As some of you may know, I've had a difficult journey with my little lad. For those that don't, he developed epithilitis as a yearling so has a slight bow leg and large somewhat unsightly knees.
3 1/2 years later, here we are on the day of our first dressage test. We did a Dressage Anywhere test last month and got 63% (!) so I decided we should make our debut as part of Team Quest.
I've not done an external dressage test for about 8 years and I'm bricking it. I didn't sleep very well last night and I get a shiver of fear/nerves/anticipation every time I think about it. I don't care about my result, just the fact we're doing it is amazing enough but I really don't want my nerves to let either him or me down.
Pointless post really, it's just been such a long journey to get here, I don't want it to go all wrong!

I can relate to the nerves as I always sleep bad before an outing but so far it's always been worth it
