This weekend just gets better.

After Taylors success with sophie yesterday we took her pony to the local show today (where it tipped it down ) She was just going to do the clear round as last time we took pony to this show she refused to jump the first fence. my eldest daughter, who does BSJA on her 16hh fruitcake, tried in the second class and even she couldn't get her over the first fence! Anyway Taylor asked if she could do the first class which was 1ft 6 (obviously feeling brave after yesterday ) Wasn't expecting much as Taylor is very nervous and trots round at the slowest pace possible , well, I don't know what came over her but she rode that pony like she'd stolen it and won the class!!

Lap of honour,brakes had failed by this time!

Wow that is just so brilliant, what progress in 1 day!! Love the look on your daughters face in the last! Well done Taylor.

That's what makes me laugh about her, she is as nervous as they come yet when she can't actually stop her pony she finds it funny!
