23 May 2009 – Myerscough College

Now for the last leg of our big tour about round the country before heading home - we traveled up to Myerscough College to be a Guinea pig for Emile in a Lecture Demonstration. We showcased Feine dame and showed her pretty much as we do in a lesson and at home working. It was such a good experience for her to work from start to finish in a situation with a lot of atmosphere and I have to say, she was even better than she was in the Master class at the Winter Champs! I went straight from riding her to Aristo and I spent the first half of Aristo's session in a complete daze! She was just so hypnotizing to ride. I'm not sure I was totally obedient to Emile with Aristo in the beginning; he had to shout quite loudly to bring me back down to earth and to concentrate on the job in hand! That said Aristo was great and we gave a good run through of the higher movements. We finally got home at half past three in the morning and I think the horses were really pleased to be back. I crawled into bed and I think I was asleep before my head even touched the pillow!

22 May 2009 – World Class

We had a World Class day today over at the Unicorn Centre in Stow. This was a day to catch up with everything like human and horse physio, vet and generally try and eliminate any niggles before they happen! I had two sessions with Emile and it was really good to train Feine Dame in another different arena especially as she is now all grown up and working in a Double Bridle too! This was a huge step for the pair of us as I had no idea how she would react to the difference. Turns out she is a total honey, well for today at least!

16 May 2009 – Addington

Another Inter 1 at Addington today, and thankfully this time the weather was fine. I think Aristo was so pleased that it wasn't raining on his head he tried a bit harder than normal for me and we were rewarded with just over 69%. We made our way back to Emile's to spend the next week training with the young horses and Aristo.

15 May 2009 – Addington Premier League

Over to Addington Premier League today to do an Inter 1 with Aristo. He warmed up great though there were some very black clouds looming in the sky which I was really hoping might just go away until I had done my test. It was totally typical that the second I cantered down the centre line and saluted, the heavens opened big style and by the time I had trotted on and turned left at C we were both totally drenched! It wasn't until about the sixth movement in that Aristo decided he had had enough and tried to leave the arena when he went past the gap! I was so wet I thought I was going to fall off while trying to coax him into keeping on going but I think the embarrassment at the thought of falling off was enough to keep my (soaked) bum in the saddle! We ended on a respectable 65.6% and 9th but I have to say I was a little disappointed as we really did feel up for it in the warm up. Next time it totally tips it down at home you will see me out there on Aristo cantering round and round!
