British Dressage 30th August


Yay! Fab day today!!

Having had two lessons in the week with Matt, followed by a visit to the European dressage championships to watch Laura B pick up a bronze medal I was feeling rather inspired this morning! Deanna went beautifully in the first test (P13), I was so so chuffed with her. Disappointed to see we only scored 60%, but with the winner only on 62.3% (and looked stunning) it seemed it just a low marked class. Finished 4th so happy with that.

Onto the second test. Often in the second test Deanna can get very disobedient to my left leading to cut corners and at times I can struggle to get her any where near the track! This has been the focus of my lessons recently and it seems to be working!

She was almost as good as the first test! P14 has a few more turns to the left which isnt ideal with our left bend problem but she was much better. Scored just one mark less than in p13 to finish on 59.92% haha so consistent at least....and finished 4th again!!
