Tullylish Report

[Skhosu]

Well it wasn't a bad day weather wise, the ground was quite soft but not slippy.
Dressage-the less said the better. Suffice to say we were NOT likely to get placed after it.
Sjing-again he wasn't really listening but jumping nicely enough if a bit held down by the going, just had one out where I threw him at it.
XC-he was fab

Let me control him and actually went too slowly! 18.8 time, but clear all the way and enjoyed it.
The course was good, only jumped the practise fence once as it was so boggy he could barely get over it, but the actual course ran well.

Well done for good XC run and glad the ground held out.

BTW-I keep meaning to say that I love the doggie in your sig.

 

[CaroG21]

Sounds like a pretty good day

Where are you off to next?

 

[only_me]

well done!!

heard the tiger trap caused probs for loads, and that PDCW fell in it with horse and horse got stuck?

heading to loughanmore?

ive just realised that dromiskin is the same date as necarne, and now i dont know if to go and watch xc at necarne or compete at dromiskin

 

[Fiona]

Well done - XC must have been tightly measured. There seemed to be quite a few time faults.

Only_me - is dromiskin not the 13th and Necarne the following week.

[only_me]

ah yes

just realised that!!

opps, now i have to persuade dad to take me to dromiskin

(which i presume is what used to be called the horseware ireland event?

 

[Fiona]

Some people call it the horseware event because it is on Tom Maguiness' farm. Would be a handy one for you, motorway down to dundalk, head down the old road to castlebellingham, turn right at a closed up old pub, and first left. Its a lovely event - lovely ground as v sandy, nice big arenas for SJ, and a pretty straightforward XC (3 water fences though). Might be an early start though, they always seem to give northerners the early dressage times for some reason.

yep, did a hunter trial at it and jumped all 3 waters (albeit greenly

) last year, was our first proper xc

 

[Skhosu]

Thanks, time wasn't bad, we just went slow! Think there were lots of faults though.
yup PDCW had a bad fall, think horse got stuck then winded, dad thought it was dead but both ok, horse a bit stiff and P a bit shocked but alive and well, very worrying silence just after they fell.
Yup, I'm for lounganmore, anyone else?

 

[only_me]

yep doing my (and merlins

) first novice there!!

must have been very scary for PDCW

glad both ok though.
