Small dressage report

[kick_On]

Popped out last nite to small rc dressage show, due to flooding, only been able to school along country lanes

, so no canter work at all

couldn't even get to trainer place as she is flooded

. So really wasn't expecting much but really using it as show practise for PP on sat. First test was wobbly and i think midges really got to him and second test used friends net relief - defo improvement - and i thought we rode a simple, even test.
Good job as WON both tests

with 66.25%-P18 and 69%-N21
two questions i have
Why do i alway go better in second test even if harder test??
and
Has anyone else found a performance improvement with using those muzzle fly nets??

WELL DONE!!

Are you using a nose net on him? Bloss has one, but only because she has a pollen allergy - you cant use it at BD unless you send in the dispensation form with your entry (which you get from BD head office!)

Oh, and let me know your time for saturday when you get it!

And lastly - will the roads i use to get there be ok for us to get through as i have no idea whats flooded and what isnt

BC is 15 mins away from the yard I am on and if you are coming from the south I can't imagine you'd have a problem. The A38 was closed briefly last week, but it was only for a short while and I have been able to drive past the turning to BC all week absolutley fine. Our schools are fine to ride in too.

ooo sh1t i didn't know needed form - ooo bullocks............. can you pull one of website????
Will do about time and spotted cat - spot on about roads you should be ok, as flooding on friday was only flash flooding and it now drained into rivers, causing flood on th flood plain

you have to have a letter from your vet, which you send to BD and then they will give you a dispensation form if they think your horse needs the nose net - you arent allowed to compete in them (even unaffliated) if you dont have the correct dispensation.
