Today was a well known local charity unaff dressage competition which is always well supported because the organisers are local and it's for a fab cause. They work hard to promote it and get decent prizes ... One of the novice classes was won by a pro on a 3* horse. There were no restrictions on entry so this person was totally entitled to be there. My question is do you think they should have ridden HC and let a true amateur win?
Just interested in thoughts really as another pro in another class did just this. Oh and just to point out it's not sour grapes as I wasn't riding in that class, said person chose to beat me hands down (along with a couple of others ) in the Elem instead i was genuinely pleased for the organisers that they attracted such a good turnout and hopefully raised a good bit of money.
As I said - just interested in your thoughts and I'm not having a moan!
