Today was a very good day for me....
The day started schooling my horses like usual. I showed Little Lady in the High Junior Classic at 8 and she was fabulous. We went clear in the first round, one of four horses to go clean. The course was very technical but very well designed. It was a lot of fun, and in the jump off I had the last rail, but was the fastest four faulter so I still ended up second. The day started off great.
Romeo's class was next, starting at 9. The course was also built very nicely, and Romeo was flawless. I ended up sixth in that class, but the best part of the day was the fact that both of my horses performed to the best of their ability, which was near perfection. I was so happy.
Later that day I watched the Grand Prix. It was, once again, an extremely technical course, and again only four went clear, two of which were ridden by Margie Engle. She ended up winning on Indigo. The weather held out all day for the horseshow which was a blessing because it was reported to storm all day, and jumping in a field or the muddy rings is never a fun day.
Today was an overall great day to end an exciting two weeks in Lake Placid
