Competition Report - Shelford (2)

I went to the second competition at Shelford on Thursday. It was great that they ran a midweek event, as it meant I didn't need to use up any holiday on it - it was already on my day off! 

My superstar pony was back. We had a fabulous day! 

Competition Report - Skipton (2)

Last Sunday we went back up to Skipton for their second horse trials of the season. I really like the XC at skipton, but their dressage arena placement is not for us (right next to the XC warm up/start), and the journey there is outright horrible - both this and last time we ended up going through the middle of Bradford! We found a different route on the way back but the journeys have just been quite stressful.

I had late times, so at least that was nice - she stayed out the night before and I had time to plait up in the morning before setting off. I was slightly dissapointed walking the XC as I was hoping for a little bit of a change on the course - nope. It was pretty much exactly the same as last time! At other events where I have attended multiple ones at the same venue, they usually change things up a bit. I think there was one fence that they had turned into a combination and the rest was the same.
