Last weekend i had a very busy time competing. I went to Moreton Equestrian centre with both my boys. Rodger was competing in his first every Medium......the weather was horrendous with torential rain, high winds and boggy arenas but he was brilliant and a total professional and managed to win both of his classes with a percentage of 68% in one!!! He did feel a little tired in the second medium but hopefully as he gets stronger at this level then he'll find the work easier.

Leo competed in the Pick your Own class and we did an Intermediare 2. We both felt so much more confident in the arena at this level and he was feeling very powerful!!! We got a personal best score of 65.6% and 2nd with so much more to come and i was absolutely thrilled!!!! The help that Adam Kemp gave me a couple of days before with them both paid off enormously.  

I then went on Sunday to Equisense Equestrian with the little mare that is owned by showjumper Geoff Lucket and is with me to train and then sell. It was only the second time in a lorry for her and her first ever show so as you can imagine she thought it was all very exciting!!! Considering she has only been under saddle now 4 months she behaved like such a grown up......she never took her mind off the job in hand and gained 67% and 2nd in her first ever Novice test.........the only thing that needs work is the fact that she thinks that halting at the end of a test is very boring and totally unnececessary and instead we wobbled about like she had ants in her pants!!! She totally suprised me and i cant wait to go to our next competition in a couple of weeks as she is such an exciting prospect for the future........
