Soooo after a very arduous Greenwood all the boys were super Archie gave me a lovely ride around the prelim Xc and by the 4 th fence we had work out a good relationship to press on and enjoy ourselves! Dancer did well all through to finish 4th in the champs and is now going up to training, a sweet boy not blessed with a huge amount of enthusiasm for anything but spooking :) but he was a changed boy and and a rare amount of verve in all three phases, ems did fab with Glider at his third comp and is now going up to training along with ducs going up to prelim , Allison and Kelli had mixed feelings with great moments and not, such is our sport !we all had tough situations with times and people getting in our way by accident at key times , but only because as fab volunteers they were racing to do a great job . Emma coming from jumpers must think we are a but crazy after being told she must go in 22 mins early to dressage and then on the last day to stay for prize giving no go to Xc no go to prize giving nooo go to Xc :) but she never said a word and got the job done .my heart goes out to Cheryl and her nasty crashes a fence line as I very nearly did the same on spooky Dancer !!i wish her a speedy recovery :)and on my next prelim walk quietly moved a bale of hay to the other side so both were safe :) Sooo no peace for the wicked it was up early Monday to get my latest acquisition High Card a gorgeous prospect see pics :) on we go roll on the next fab event Hh
