WILLERBY HILL 2ND ROUND COMPETITION.....

On Saturday we had an early start knowing that Leona was riding at 9.52am and i was at 10.06 am, so we had to be up to get ready for Willerby, and the atmosphere was good and everything was cleaned and carefully prepared.

Leona when we got there only had 15mins to warm up and was soon in arena one ready to perform the test prelim 16 but Molly was feelingg quite lazy and didnt give much impulsion and leona scored 54% and came 21st.

I was fairly worried how Jayde would go, as she had only been back in work 10 days and these competitions need much more time to practice than that. but in the warm up ring something clicked and she came good, in the arena i felt it went well but not well enough to have qualified as we had a couple of mistakes which didnt seem like big ones to the ordinary untrained eye but i knew they were, but we still got 63.5% and came 13th place.

No qualifications but for me and jayde quite a successful trip and we have sykehouse on sunday to try and make our last attempt to get through, wish us luck.
