Hi All 
Hope everyone is well, im a bit of a lurker these days - been on the forum for years and things have changed a lot since the old times! But thought I would drop in and do a quick up date on my gang.
Jupiter, my homebred by Johnson (Jazz x Flemmingh) that i have backed and produced myself went to Wellington Premier League yesterday to do the Hickstead 5yr old class. It was a strong class and the biggest show hes been too. He had a major meltdown in the outdoor warmup as it was right next to the food van and a very loud generator so I was allowed to go and warm up with the PSG horses indoors which was nice of them. He settled nicely but the trot wasnt as swinging and through as it could be. We went to do our test and he was quite tense in the trot and had a little bit of a tantrum and a rear which slammed his trot mark but he did lovely canter and a settled walk, his canter earner him a 7.4 and the walk a 7.2, unfortunately his trot bought his overall score down and the tantrum cost us heavily. We were still placed in the middle of a high class group of 5yr olds so I was really pleased with him. If he hadnt have misbehaved he would have been well up in the top of the class. So I will be contending the 6yr olds with him next year for definite
Hes done a couple of Novice affiliated tests recently scoring 71% and 67%, he will do the Novice Open Petplans this year as hes not ready for Regionals yet, so we just need 1 more sheet which we will hopefully get this weekend as competing at Kingston Maurward on Sunday.
A few pictures of him from a lesson at my trainers, and from Wellington yesterday:
Some of you may remember Bloss, my lovely mare who is now 20. We qualified for the Elementary Freestyle at the Winter Championships back in April, very sadly she went lame whilst I was up there and has done her check ligament quite badly. She is enjoying 6 months off in the field and will be rescanned in September, so fingers crossed for some good news then. She is completely sound which is a good thing and the swelling and heat has gone now that was in her leg when she first did it.
