Weekend plans

[Bernster]

Loaded and travelled well. 10 minutes down the road, I realised I'd left my purse so had to go back to the yard for it. So I eventually I got to the show jumping, which was running late. Double clear and 6th in the 75. Clear in 85 but I took the wrong course (common for me) so I did accumulator and came 4th including jumping the joker and clearing it by about a foot from the photos. Then he didn't fancy going home took an hour to persuade him.
Back to loading practice today. So disappointed, he is so fab in every other way.

Ah you'll get there, for me, it's a matter of finding out the best method and going from there. I've had success with the dually halter for really sticky loaders but recently the application of a carrot on the lorry floor is enough for F. Thankfully his stomach rules most of the time haha. But a great outing otherwise, well done.

Well done Leanne and Star
We went and did the RC Novice Area SJ in the rain - someone missed the memo saying I don't do getting wet
The track was proving really spooky in the first round - 5 teams were eliminated! So I was a little apprehensive - this was only Mike's fourth SJ attempt
We had 4 in the first, clear in the second round and then had to jump off with the other 2 teams for the Lincoln spot. Poor Mike it was his first time having to properly jump off for something and although he did try we tipped two out, with the rest of the team also faulting we finished third so missed the Lincoln spot but qualified for the new Regional champs at Hartpury which we were quite happy with as it's an hour's travel for us versus 4+ to Lincoln

Thats great, well done!

Sounds like a win-win to me!
