Wally and I made our debut outing at West Wilts Equestrian Centre a good one with a massive 78% (22 in eventing terms) dressage and a fabulous clear round showjumping, leaving us 1st!! He is such a lovely horse, with huge paces that make the arena feel very small. The dressage was out on the grass which is great practice for when we go to our first event. He warmed up well and went in and performed a lovely test. There is still room for improvement so watch this space. Jumping was in the newly resurfaced indoor arena; he is beginning to understand my ways of jumping and came back to me very well. He is a very exciting prospect. West Wilts is only 15mins from home so it is handy to pop down there when they have little shows on like this, soon they will have a huge new outdoor jumping arena too which will make it even better. I am lucky having such a fantastic facility just down the road.
