A great day at Catton Park Horse Trials although very warm, with 4 horses competing in 30 degree heat!
Silver Lining started off the day, with a lovely test but a slightly harsh mark. He went on to jump a great D/C round the novice track, making it feel very easy to finish 10th. Next run at Upton Intermediate.
Undalgo De Windsor was in the Open Intermediate and glad to be back out since Houghton. He did a good test of 30, an unlucky pole after jumping brilliantly and stormed around the XC making nothing of the hills! Trendy Captain Clover also scored 30 in his intermediate test, and jumped his 5th D/C consecutively at 2*/Intermediate level to place 10th.
Echo P, lying 3rd after the dressage on another score of 30 then pinged his way clear SJ, and felt fantastic XC but just added an annoying 20 penalties early on in the course.
A lovely day in the sunshine with fab horses and a beautiful park. The event so well run with lovely tracks.
Interlaken W in his first ever event, scored a 27.5 dressage followed by a lovely clear SJ and just a baby moment early on in the cross country to finish 2nd!
