Today in Lake Placid started off early. I was on my equitation horse, Romeo, at 6:30 to prepare him for the USEF show jumping talent search. I practiced a few lines with Frank and made sure Romeo was quiet enough. He was perfect when we jumped, and also in the flat callback... We ended up fourth, which was exactly the amount of points I needed to fully qualify for that Final. Phew!
Little Lady had another day of just flatting today, and she will show tomorrow in the High Junior Jumper Classic. Romeo will also show tomorrow in the Cathy Scholl class. I'm scheduled to start riding at 6 am tomorrow so I can prepare both my horses before the 8 o'clock start.
Today I watched a lot of equitation rounds, and also a few low junior jumpers and some children's jumpers, who had the chance to show in the field which is a great opportunity for the younger riders to gain an exciting and new experience.
Tomorrow is my last day of showing, and I hope to complete this show with a successful day. Also, I'm looking forward to watching the grand prix tomorrow afternoon in the field.
