Pictures from the Horse Show:

Ri the Dressage Horse:
(or rather "Against All Odds" the dressage horse)



He is doing training level in the photo below, and is in the CDI ring doing the Amateur Eq class to the right. See the new booths!


































Amanda and Ri in their final class of the final day, doing their final salute. Look how perfectly square he is!





Dexter in his freestyle: Lengthen trot at left, start of freewalk at right. Photos thanks to Christine Thew! Apparently I need to work on keeping my leg under me in his lengthens! I am going to have to be a whole lot fitter for next year when his movement will be even bigger...


Dexter in his favourite "class"...Freestyle grazing, and in his stall. He likes sticking his nose through the bars and seeing if there is anything he can grab. This is the end of the show and he is sporting his frizzy unbraided mane and his prize cooler (thanks Tudor Tack). I took him grazing in the trees a few times a day at the show, and he would come out with branches stuck in his mane braids and tail...
