Went to above show on Saturday, just to do 2 workers classes. It was a nice easy day as didn't have to be there until 12 noon. Got Zara off the lorry and she was rather on her toes... Got ready and walked over to the ring, course was nice, although not very big..

, warmed up well and went in she popped round like a little angel, was so please, anyway ended up 6 of us went clear so back, walked, trotted and cantered round, then was asked to gallop, well only two of us really went for it, the others just did a slightly extended canter, lined up and the judge got aboard, well Zara has not been ridden by anybody other than me for a good few years, but she was a star, gave the judge a lovely ride and we ended up coming 4th

, was really please as all that had gone through were really nice. On to my second class, well Zara was up for it, went in and she was jumping really well until we came to a oxer to an upright, she jumped the oxer but rather deep and then I went for another stride to the upright, but she went for the long one and we had a little scrap and by the time we had sorted ourselves out she was ontop of the fence, so unfortunately a stop, but came round and popped the last few fences. Still really please with her..............
