Set for the National Championships!

We have been busy with the Regional Championships at Aike Grange Stud in Driffield.

I am pleased to say the Regional’s went very well and the weather on the bfirst day was quite obliging.

The horses showed off the fabulous Supreme ProductsProfessional Collection looking exceptionally well in the arena. The products really do make them look striking and very eye catching.

Welkom did a lovely test and won the Elementary Championship.  He really performed well and we were delighted with him.   In the Prix St Georges, Rubin showed tension in the canter which put him in fourth place, still a good result but not high enough for a ticket.

On the second day the weather was pretty rough and Welkom was not impressed when the previous horse to him left the ring. Well, after a very poor start he went on to do a lovely test, but any blip like that and you can go home.

Rubin on the other hand, even with the weather, was much more relaxed and I was very pleased with his test, but you do have to win to go forward and we finished in third place.

Last up was Vanita, and after being a little worried about the wind, he
went in and did a great test scoring 70% and becoming the Advanced Medium Champion.

So the two boys, Welkom and Vanita, are off to the British Dressage National Championships yahoo.

Fingers crossed for them!
