I cant believe how time had flown by since i last wrote on my blog! apologies to everyone who has been waiting for the latest updates! Been rather a hectic few weeks and i have been a little slack on my posts! So here goes the low down of the last month!!
After a busy half term packed full of teaching, followed by a friends wedding at the weekend i was back on the event circuit at Great Tew - 12th and 13th June.
As well as it being my sisters birthday that Sunday i had an action packed few days at our very local event Great Tew, just a few miles down the road.
Coming out to play on the Saturday was Argentinus and Creeslough.
Argentinus did a nice test but still plenty to work on, followed by a disappointing 2 down in the show jumping - He felt just a little flat and was not really trying over the smaller fences on the course. He then jumped a brilliant round xc and took on all the direct routes. To finish outside the placings.
Creeslough didn't do his best test although at home we have been changing a few things in the way that he goes - My trainer has been helping me alot with his elevation and he is just going through a stage of being a little insecure. He then jumped well show jumping although a little spooky and had 1 down. Followed by a speedy XC.
Archetype did day before Novice dressage as well and has really improved scoring just 28, the owner Jordann Daniells and i were very pleased.
An early start on Sunday morning Archetype jumped a rather keen show jumping round showing just how happy he was to be at a party again and had 1 down, followed by a just as keen XC round taking on all the direct routes and giving me a brilliant round.
Ballycullane Dundee of Taelor Daniells was also out on Sunday,so the sisterly rivalry was high, of whos horse would do best!
He did a nice accurate test but sadly the judge didn't think as highly of it to what we did which was a little disappointing although full made up for with a brilliant double clear.
Tell Me about it II was on good form for the dressage and did one of his best tests yet, so everyone was happy. In the Showjumping we are still making adjustments with our breaks and finding a good rhythm aswell as making him realise that novice is just a bit bigger than Pre novice - He had the first 3 fences down then jumped fantastically. And did another speedy round XC around just his 2nd novice.
