Gatcombe - Thursday

Very frustratingly we had to be at Gatcombe today with two horses doing their dressage in the Novice Championships.  It was quite ridiculous to get us their today and a real shame for the owners, but I am sure the organisers have got their reasons.

Yes I Can did some super work and unfortunately made a couple of expensive mistakes to finish on 33.  

The Graduate produced the best test he has done so far and is on the lead on 28. The judges weren't over generous with him but I was very happy with how he has come on since his lesson with Tracie last week.

We are back again 'sparrow fart' tomorrow for three dressage tests.  Happily they have had lots of rain and I think this is the best ground I have ever seen at Gatcombe.
