I took Phoenix, my NF x KWPN yearling, to the Royal Show yesterday. Now I will explain that this is the first time EVER Phoenix has stepped off the farm
I know! VERY stupid, especially those who know the Royal Show to be an extremely busy one with everything you can think of. I just did not have time to take her anywhere beforehand, I know bad excuse. However, you would have never have guessed it
She was a complete Pro, not putting her foot wrong once!
She didn't spook, push, barge, pull, nap.....nothing!!! Just perfect manners. I was very very very proud
In her Coloured Youngstock class there were 17
others, only 1 other being a yearling. 90% were 2/3yo warmbloods
So she didn't come anywhere, BUT I don't care at all as she was sooooooooooooooooo good.
They trotted along the long side next to the stands, flags, tanoids, stands, etc and she was the ONLY one to not spook and do a perfect line of trot with no canter
I was so happy I can't tell you..............very proud of my little girl (as you can probably tell
)
Judging was very wierd as there was a beautiful traditional youngster with movement to die for, I thought would come in the top 3, and everyone was surprised it didn't come anywhere either
I later spoke to his owner who then told me the judge normally judges warmbloods......... explains a lot
But I still don't care, look at my good girl...........(my friend was showing her BTW)

Don't like her head in this as she's messing with the bit
Sorry to bore you and thanks for reading.
We've decided to concentrate on some local shows now..........start from the top and work down
