PENCARDER SILVER STORM
Rosie was first to go out of the two of them...she did a 42.7, had one very unlucky pole just being a little too keen to be out and about. She was awesome xc again but sadly picked up a 20 penalties when she lost her back end going up the slope to a log, she pretty much fell straight into the log ending up with her nose and chest on it so couldn't recover. This is her first xc fault since she was 5yo and really didn't deserve it. She is such a dude jumping and enjoyed the rest of her foot perfect round.

Finally I was allowed to take Jimmy to an event 17 months after he was injured at Badminton. He seems to have settled in his year off and managed to produce a great test with plenty of room for more improvement, he was lying 3rd after dressage on 26.8 in a very hot section. Annoying we picked up 8 faults in the showjumping one was my fault and the other him, we were very rusty having had a year off but it will come back. Cross country was AMAZING!!! Jimmy was very straight and bold, he loved every minute of it. I took it fairly steady collecting 15.6 time faults. Thankfully he was fine the next day and I can run him faster at his next run!! I was very emotional finishing the xc, he is a true legend and I am very grateful to Mr and Mrs Wookey for being so patient over the last year. I am very privileged to ride him and we will be going for it at Blenheim.
