As promised!
Red went like a STAR!! I was a little nervous, took some kalms and they worked brill. He travelled brill, came out of the box very relaxed and tacked him up and got on no bother (from the floor too!!)
Warmed in - didnt over do it thought because he gets flat! Went in to the test arena, he didnt spook at a single thing.
Test went ok until the canters then we lost it, canter is a sticky point at the mo so i expected it. The judge liked him very much, he got 2 8's and a 7 for his trot work (then some 4's! whoopsi!!
) but he got 8's for paces and i got 8's for rider.
He got 64% which i was over the moon with!! Definately room for improvement though, with a decent sensible canter we would have been in the running for a top rosette the winner got 70%.
Anyway the main point of the day was that we went and he was well bahaved and we both enjoyed ourselves and we did so i am so chuffed!!
We only got one pic but here it is:-
Hope you like.
Cant wait to do more now!!
