Brave back on form... Did Prelim 12 and Novice 24 today.
Brave was in a bit of a 'make me' mood and was being a total prat as I was warming him up before the prelim, spooking at things he had seen a million times before, and went from having no go to no whoa! grabbing the bit an generally ignoring me!
but he did OK in his test, really made me work and broke in one of his canters because he spied the horses turned out in the field, the muppet... Anyway came 4th out of about 10, but boy was it hard work.
After a short break we warmed up for the novice and by this time he had got over himself and actually did quite a nice test we got our best score yet with 65.38% and came third out of 8. He still made me work hard and needs to carry himself more than he is at the moment!
Got one cracking picture... Love my unconventional dressage horse!
I think he looks a lot bigger than 15hh in this
