Today. Ozzy and I rode with Mel and Duncan and Loren and Threes. Although we didn’t get all three horses on video, they were all great together. Today, we worked on getting used to the Jumper ring, standing and watching other horses jump, and starting to ask for some extension at the trot. Special thanks to Mel for filming from Duncan’s back–I know it’s not easy chica, so THANK YOU!

Me voici en train de travailler ma direction au galop ainsi que l’approche d’obstacle à un jeune cheval de 3 ans pendant un cours d’équitation. Ca l’air tellement facile quand on regarde ^^’

Duncan and I showed in the Pre-Adult Jumper division at the Sussex County Horse Show today–the first time I ever showed a horse of my own in an A-rated horse show!
My primary goals for us were to a) continue to build confidence in the schooling ring (land of chaos, where Duncan constantly believes he will be smashed into), b) take a bolder approach to the courses, encouraging him to be in front of my leg more consistently, c) remember my courses without having to make corrective turns, and d) keep my position as consistent as possible.
I feel that we accomplished all of these goals–we had some horses cut us off in the schooling rings (even, at times, when there was about a football field-sized area to turn in…they always turn in front of me! argh!), and while I could tell he wanted to jet one way or another, I reassured him that we’d survive, and he believed me. I remembered all of my courses just fine, and while I’m certainly not perfect, I feel my position is more consistent than it was in the previous show. Duncan was considerably more forward at this show; at times, he was acting the way he does at home when he’s having a hyper moment. We got a funky distance to the red and white oxer in our third course, and he let me know by doing some mini-broncs on our approach to our next jump. I’m just glad he tuned back in and let me refocus him in time! We still have some funky lead stuff going on at times, but he did manage to do a complete change at the end of one of the courses as I was pulling up! I count it as a small victory each time he figures out that he CAN do this with a rider! 
We got 2nd in our first class and 5th in our third class, which was a speed class. I am very proud of him–this show had all sorts of potential to be scary and intimidating for both of us, and we kept our cool together.
Thank you Jim (my husband) and Jen for filming! As you can see, I spliced their footage into one video, so you get to see each course from a couple of angles. Enjoy!
