Our little princess Doylan Cafe au Lait went to her first show on Saturday. She was rather shocked at the length of time she had to stand and wait and then trotting around a ring with 15 others! Her behavior was fantastic and she produced the most beautiful show, we are so pleased with her and look forward to many more shows this winter. Doylan Elegant Gift completed two dressage tests on Sunday. She was very good but also pretty spooked by an indoor she had never been in before. All the more reason to get to as many places as possible. Georgie our stable jockey takes her pony to the MSJ Championships at Addington this weekend to compete in the Novice and Elementary dressage and the 90cm showjumping. She works extremely hard with everything she rides. I have been around now to a few shows with her and I have to say generally I am very disapointed with the level of horsemanship, clipped ponies standing in cold drizzly evenings with no rugs waiting to jump. How people expect their animals to perform when they cannot warm them up properly is beyond me, and that's just the start of it!! xoxo
