Druid and I headed of to the Afflicted dressage at Rowallan on Saturday.
He did really well, we got 66% for E41 and finished 1st - always nice to get some pennies back! Then went on to get 63.5% for E43 to finish 4th= in the restricted section. The judge for that test has never given him more that 58% for elementary before - so it was nice to get a decent mark and a rossie from her!
I am hoping to do a Medium at our next outing, sticking to the unaffiliated section, don't want to risk point.
I'm off to practice sitting to medium trot now!

very well done to you both ;D. Are you competing at the regionals then this weekend? Nope, never qualified My Mum is heading up with her boy for the Rest Elem. If I qualify for the summers then I will probably go to that, failing that I will aim for the Pet Plans at Elem & Med.

Now now Kath, when I started doing elementarys it was before the rising rule came in!!! It was relief all round when they changed at first so that you could rise for the medium and then it was changed for the whole test.
I always sit (well, wobble) - apart from the medium trot - I just cannae dae that..........
