2010 WANDIN

March 20 & 21

Today, I have just completed the Wandin Horse Trials International event, riding Nerreman Tatiana CNC*. This is our first competition coming back into work. Tatiana, has been out of work for 5 months, so just getting her out and about again was the main goal. Although our dressage scores weren't great, I was pleased with the way she worked. Unfortunate rails were pulled in show jumping, but Tatiana really proved her jumping skills on the cross country, going clear, and flying through the course at an amazing speed and jumping boldly. Not a single fault from her.Our overall placing was not great, placing around halfway through the class of 40. But being the youngest pair, we were pleased as this being our first competition back in 5 months or so. We are now working towards Yeringberg horse trials and Camperdown horse trials.
