Joyous!

BCA BE90 and 5th place in the prize money, offsetting the fuel price increases nicely- thanks Bog.

Excuse my language ? the last fence at BCA 90 was shared with the 100 and the novice and shared the heck out of me.

Bog, not so much.

Full report tomorrow but very proud of him, two top 5 affiliated placings in the last few weeks

Little cob that can pulled it out of the bag and got second with 72.5% and qualified for the inter county dressage championships on the Surrey team.
just got to keep him going and asthma free till September now !
I bought him a Flexineb last week and it seems to be helping

His stable mate is doing SO well. He has done a few clear rounds and been such a little darling- he's very careful and makes a lovely shape (far better than Bog whose too bold for his own good). He needs to be a proper baby unlike Bog who did one uanff SJ then straight into eventing. With Bear it's all about baby steps and confidence, lot's of pats and recognising when he's tired but he's going to be epic. And he will certainly do the better dressage test

I rode him the other day for the first time in ages and had a lovely hack- he's so forward thinking and sensible. But... nah... get me back on my nutjob Bog

Well it turned out to be a learning experience! Baby Paddy is going through a bit of a teenage phase! Dressage wasn't too bad, though warm up was interesting!

And was then a bit wild showjumping!

But he really is a wee dude!

Blue had her first canter in the school since tying up back in October! I've been taking it all very, very slowly with her and building her fitness carefully. We've had a few small canters out hacking but this was the first in the school.

And it was the best she's ever managed. Only five or six strides, because I was in the smaller school and she isn't balanced enough for the corners yet, but sensible and relaxed and smooth.

So many people had insisted she had a not-great canter just because she was a cob, but discovering and treating the PSSM has made so much difference in her, in so many ways.

And she was very proud of herself afterwards! You can always tell when she knows she's done well - ears pricked, eyes soft, and just carrying herself with a certain cockiness!

Adding a special mention to Paddy's buddy Pretty who was out to play to! He was a real star, even though he hasn't been out since October and in December it was thought he might be very badly broken!
