Hi Everyone, such a lot has happened since I last blogged. I don't know where the time goes.  Louis has been out a bit. Bethy has taken him to a couple of Pony Club rallies and is getting on really well with him. She also did her first ever dressage test and with Rika's help did a really nice test and got 69% in the Introductory Test.  Rika then took him in the Novice class which she won.  Rika also took him to do a Working Hunter class at Chyerton in the Threewaters Show. Unfortunately he rolled a pole on the style but otherwise put in a faultless performance and came fourth. She also won the Junior Section of the Novice Derby and came home with a lovely sash.
Lily has had a few problems with some minor injuries on her legs which meant we had to withdraw from taking her Stockland Lovell to event. We were extremely lucky to be able to substitute Honey and took her instead to do an extra intro class before she does her first BE100 this weekend.  Her dressage was an improvement on her previous score and she had a nice double clear with just one and a half time faults. She came fourth and won a nice pair of Equilibrium Boots.
Last weekend we took Honey and Louis to Derby Day at Chyverton for a bit of fun. Louis jumped well but didn't get in the ribbons. Honey was one of only four clears in the 3' class and rolled a pole in the jump off coming 4th. We were really pleased that she was not at all spooky and was happy to jump everything in front of her.
Hopefully Lily's legs will be fine for Pontispool this weekend, so we shall be away with both the girls for the weekend.
