Went to sollihul riding club today to do the 1.05m and the newcomers..
Was very busy in the first couple of classes, and the discovery had 70 odd in it as it was a bluechip qualifier, so had a bit of waiting around to do.
Went in about 27th in the 1.05m- she flew round lovely, so got into the two phase section, did a real good turn into the first of the jump off, which was a big spread, but she jumped it SOO big that it took me a while to recover, and the next jump was a style 3 strides from the spread, and she rolled the top pole as I hadn't been able to get her up onto her hocks as I took so long to recover from the last fence
She went on and jumped the rest nicely, finishing on 4 faults.
Entered the newcomers, only about 12 people in it, omg me and Tara looked soo scruffy and common compared to the other horses!
Anyway went in and she felt quite tired, but she loves her jumping so much that she perked up going into the first fence, flew round really nicely getting the strides just right, but unfortunately we had number 7 down with her back feet, it was coming off the corner away from the collecting ring and she wasn't 100% concentrating and had motered around the corner- she jumped the rest nicely though to finish on 4 faults again
Not too bad really, I am pleased with her, she jumped her little socks off today for me, i dont think i will ever find a horse who suits me more, i love herr
