Poor Rafi ,he will sleep well tonight!

Rafi did have yesterday off in the field but today he had to forget dressage and become a showjumper .He was first to go at 9.30 so up bright and early, he did a lovely clear round as did the rest of his team ,then he had a very long wait as there were loads of teams.They put the jumps up but it was the same course ! He did an even better clear and alot more forward. Unfortunately two in the team had 4 faults but they had to wait for individual jumpoff.
I think by then he was half asleep and they weren't given much warning to go in .He didn't seem to see the 1st fence and jumped through it ,brave lad then woke up and did some amazing turns and finished the rest of the course clear in a super time.
He is such a versitile and giving horse .Law sent me some pics from Addington.

Think he thought he was going to get a rosette as he has never had to do 3 rounds before !
