Went to the Area 14 (I think) Riding Club Junior ODE qualifier for Offchurch in August held at Poplar Park and had a fab time
This is the first competiton Sicco has been out to since having his Wolfteeth removed a few weeks ago so wasn't sure how he would behave
Dressage- Really lovely test marked by a certain judge who has never really marked (I feel) Sicco fairly, but today he excelled and done a lovely test which earned us a mark of 30.9 (highest in the whole class!!!) and a lovely comment which brightened up my day
SJ- No questions but a nicely built course which wasnt causing any problems so to speak and Sicco flew round beutifully (I think
) and had a clear
XC- Always been our weakest faze and today the course wasn't as easy as last year, it was most of the BE Intro course and so I was slightly pooping my pants
Needn't of woried as Sicco flew round giving me a lovely time and went clear
Now the boring part, waiting for results, had everyones full marks up apart from my little square for he XC and Time penalties
typical
Waited ages and turned out I had 17.6 time penalties which was gutting but I wasnt too bothered as he was suuuuch a good boy
So ended up 6th individually (would have won without the time penalties
) and now where as a team.
Was a really lovely day though if slightly windy and wet.
Sorry for VERY self indulgent post but just wanted to share
Thanks
