To the dressage writer for Section D at Barbury on Friday:

[Sukistokes2]

The level of test will have a huge bearing on low or zero mark. Unaff prelim/novice then yep a low mark rather than a zero. 2* BE asking for left canter wants left canter, not just canter. So in this scenario then a zero is probably correct.

Thank you

Anyway, thank you all for being so kind about my awful dressage! Right, I shall get on and write a proper report about it - gory dressage details and all.

This is what we've all been waiting 6 pages to hear!

You're not a mad dog owner on Hackney Marshes, are you...?!

No, but I pass Hackney Marshes on the train on my way to work. Would I be right in thinking that P(C)arrot is stabled very close?

 

[HotToTrot]

Well, I am being a bit slow about it!

Yes, at Lee Valley. I think I actually got dogged on Leyton Marsh. I think Hackney Marsh may be one over.

He will be snapped up by a top-level dressage home, I am sure.

Please can I have him! He is the right colour and he is such an amazing jumper. He could teach me sooooo much! I wouldn't care about the dressage marks riding a horse like him! And Monty has officially retired from eventing to be a dressage horse so I don't need 2 who can do dressage!

 

[HotToTrot]

Yes! Matching ponies for you.

 

[Leg_end]

Can you PM me when you are thinking of selling, I'd love a horse like him to go up the levels with?

 

[HotToTrot]

I have done.
