First up was Topaz at our first AF on Friday, the least said the better! I have the most rotten cold, then the box wouldn't start, so had to phone round for a replacement, this meant I missed the arena walk. Arrived to find I'd clearly forgotten the size of the arenas and the nice bright indoor was the warm-up and the scary indoor was the test arena 
. Topaz warmed up fabby, listening and generally just lovely, into the test and ah well t'was not our day... Last in class is an achievement in our book 
.
So glossing over that
.
Next day was Skylla's turn to do her first grown-up test which involved cantering! She is just the bestest ever, love her loads . She's getting so much more relaxed about me getting on , but I was still mega chuffed that she let me tack her up and get straight on and into the warm-up for her first away arena with zero issues! Rode through the test and despite canter being rather tricky in a 20x40m (her legs are too long :lol
, she was ever so grown up . Managed a rather generous 65% to win her first prelim test :lol:.
Clever baby horse.
