OK so I thought I was going to dressage just down the road at Andoversford - being Brockhampton, Cheltenham. However fortunately mum pointed out at 11pm last night that the Brockhampton in question was near Swindon village and the other side of Cheltenham.

So had to get up extra early and take trailer through the centre of Cheltenham this morning.

So what happened did Gloucestershire run out of original ideas for names or we they all badger obsessed?

Anyway so my dressage question - the classes were all intermixed and although a batch went through in mine, it was not going to finish before 12.45pm (I was on at 9.40am). So I didn't want to wait for the class to end as I thought it would be pretty unfair to leave my neddy in the box. Is this normal in dressage not to stay for your result / score sheet??
 
I'd hoped it was the Deer Park one - but this was a different Brockhampton just up from Cheltenham racecourse.

Had lovely facilities, but I didn't like driving through town!!!
 
I quite often stay and watch everyone else as you can learn quite a bit from just watching others and see where they pick up and lose marks and see what the judge is looking for. And in many cases you realise you weren't as bad as you thought you were.

However if it is a big class and the weather sucks i will watch a few and then leave an envelope behind for my sheet to be sent to me
