Having only had 3 days to settle in the new yard, I was packing up to set off for Martinvast Horse Trials in France with one of the Newhall horses and Ellie. The horses travelled well and it was a mixed bag of competition. Ellie proved herself to be a potential 4* horse and gave me a great ride XC, with an unfortunate pole down SJ leaving us mid-way placed down the board. She really will be a horse for the future and i have high hopes for her. Unfortunately I didn't run Captain Hook XC as he had not been himself in the SJ - so we decided to save him for another day. Henry was a bit put out to be staying at home when the lorry left - his preparation for Burghley was kept on track by Alex whilst I was away and it's all systems go for the CCI4* at the beginning of September. We're off to Highclere on Saturday with 3 Intermediates running, so fingers crossed for good weather as this rain will have really made a difference to the going. Comments11/26/2010 19:35
many people used to play for Manchester United, arch rivals of my team Liverpool. So I'm afraid you're asking the wrong person! them that do the wrong-sth. so we must be strong.
