Too Tired – Friday, September 17, 2021

It has been a very long day, and another day of showing will happen tomorrow, so I don’t have time to blog much.

Derry was amazing in the Low Adult class (1 meter / 3’3″). She jumped around in an easy double clear and was 2nd – an impressive primary color. As Kris says, “the Canadian winner”. I had so much fun!

Bart was very good, too, but had a knockdown (4 faults) at the third jump in the High Children’s/Adult class (1.10 meter / 3’7″). The Children and Adults were combined. He finished 7th, which was not last, and he was perfect at every jump but the one. I was very pleased, and feel so lucky to ride two fabulous chestnut Irish horses. We do it again tomorrow, and I am already nervous, despite exhaustion.

It was a long, hot day.

Bart is now home and out with his pals on a cool evening. Derry is back in her diet pasture at Jane’s.

Here are pictures lifted from videos done by Jane and Harry.
