What a great return to competition for 'ma girls'.....

Just to give you all a quick results update as we were back out competing with Roxie and Milli last Wednesday. It was there first outing since having time off at the end of the event season and despite being very excited they both behaved really well!

On arrival I got on Roxie and did some work long and low to warm her up and  then took her back to the box and got on Milli. We were warming up in the outside arena and doing our test inside so I was expecting Milli to call inside and perhaps loose her concentration at times but she didn't. She was very well behaved and performed a lovely test. There are obviously areas to improve on but at the end of the day she is only 4 years old and still in the early stages of her competitive life. I was even more pleased when my mum told me that Milli scored a very good 71.2% and had won her class!!

Then it was Roxie's turn to do her test and she was working very well in the warm up.....riding her around a bit then putting her back in the trailer obviously helps her chill out a bit! She went in and performed a great test and scored a fantastic 75.7% and she too won her class! Roxie then jogged sideways back to the trailer and was very disappointed to be loaded up to go home, she was ready for the SJ and XC! Bless her :)

Goes to show time off to chill out does them both good and fingers crossed these results will continue as we now step up the training to start preparing for the 2013 season! We are next out on the 25th November for more dressage and then 1st December for a combined training.

As some of you may have seen the time has come and unfortunately Emily is now  advertised for sale! I would really love to keep her as she is so much fun to ride :) A really top quality horse for the future who is so easy to do and have around, check out her ad and let me know what you think.....
