Day One at Gatcombe

We had a good start to Gatcombe today.  In the advanced section, Chilli Morning is in the lead on 24, he did a really lovely soft test, and the rider should be shot for a stupid error - of course!

Running Order produced his best test so far to score 26.8 and is lying in 3^rd. He was much more forward and softer, and that bodes well for Blenheim.

Seacookie also did a pleasing test to score 28, which has him in 5th place.  He did some lovely work, but was a little excited in the first half which was a shame.

Henton for Fun is lying 5^th in the Novice Championship so far, and I was very happy with his test. He did some lovely work and scored 30.6, which was a little disappointing.  However the lead is on 29 and the marks in a Novice Championship are unbelievably tight.

ROO is lying in 11^th place in the Intermediate Championship with a score of 32.  He produced some good work and I am very happy with how he felt.

Tomorrow will be a busy day, and I will be hoping they give me some good rides.
