Now that Photobucket is finally working (!) here are a couple of photos from the intro at Richmond on Sunday. We were on really late so after hours of hanging around we finally got to do our dressage in a bit of a bog at 4.45pm. Our test was much improved on the last couple of weeks and we scored 31.5, which I was really pleased with, she's getting 8's for her trot now so once we get our unbalanced wonky canter sorted out hopefully we'll be scoring sub-30

On to the SJ, which wasn't too bad other than a silly fence down in the related due to a bit of over-enthusiasm

We were last to go on the XC and she was absolutely fab, flew round about 15 secs inside the time and made nothing of it so I'm feeling confident about moving up to PN at Allerton next month. We only managed about 13th as Richmond does tend to be a bit of a dressage competition, but I was really pleased with how she went

So without further ado on to the photos - here are a couple from XC (only proofs so quality not great)

And I put this one in from the SJ for comic value - we had a temporary brake failure took off about a stride too early

Thanks BBs! She is quite photogenic bless her!

Think the smile was more a look of 'oh s**t'...!!! but we made it to the other side

I should've posted the shot immediately before that, my facial expression is even more hilarious in that one!
