The past month has been a bit of a blur! We did the double again at Moulton though did not achieve the crucial qualifying percentages which meant though we went forward to the viewing day we were not strong contenders. I did enjoy the experience though and quickly refocused on the Regionals. Jack and I had a misunderstanding in the canter tour! I over corrected in the medium canter and Jack produced a lovely though quite undesired flying change and though he obligingly changed back for me I had lost my cool so that when I asked for more engagement in the counter canter I wasn't quiet enough with my aids and we ended up with some lovely but again not wanted tempi changes. Hmmm so no Nationals this year for me!
Anjuli meanwhile was going very well and we decided to let her have a half term holiday before bringing her back into work at the all new MB Equestrian.
This report is late because I have moved house and had to wait to be reconnected...
So now to the future. My next big outing is the X Factor Charity Dressage to Music Gala at The Hand for Children in Need. We were selected last year but Jack caught a virus and had the winter off. Fingers crossed we are chosen again. Other goals are to qualify for Winter and Summer Regionals. Watch this space!! Alison
