ROUND UP OF JUMPING AT WH....


On Sunday ~Morning we were up bright and early for trailblazers quals at WH, leaving the yard at 08.30 am, not really much to pack as we'd packed the car in the nights before. When we arrived after 1hr's drive, we went straight and entered. Molly in 75cms as a main class and Jayde in 75cms as a warm up. Molly went fairly well until she did a dead stop at the water tray and Leona managed to slip off. Jayde on the other hand flew round nicely but caught the rail on number 6! No quals there. Leona took Jayde in 85cms to get some experience of bigger classes and again Jayde had one rail down :-(. After that i went for my main class 95cms and Jayde jumped lovely over the first 4 jumps but then stopped at some wall fillers which was daft because she'd already jumped them and i ended up on her neck which knocked her confidence. After that she would jump it and it was the end of the road for us.

Not too disheartened we travelled safely home to prepare for the challenges that lay ahead of us.
