Area VII Young Riders Benefit Horse Trials, Chehalis, WA

8/12/2013

Marina and I went to Chahalis last weekend to compete at the Young   Riders   Benefit Horse Trials.
Marina rode in Beginner Novice, she had the best warm up ever...but she got flustered going in the ring..she went in before tthe bell, then after she started she went of course. They weren't as settled as in warm up and their score showed it.
They got a score of 50.5
I rode in my and Paktaly's first USEA recognized Training show.
I was pleased with my dressage test, although after getting my sheet I noticed I cantered at K instead of F and got 2 faults...
I finished with a score of 38.6 that put us in 8t place.
Saturday I rode XC early, and Paktaly, or "Turkmen Air" is his show name, was amazing. He jumped like a pro, never hesitated or looked at a thing.
I was worried about the coop to the water, it was murky and weedy, but he jumped right in!
He was great at the 2 stride...
And he didn't bat an eye at the ditch and log...instead he does his name justice...
Next was a steep little hill narrow on top with a log and back down. We finished with no jump faults and .8 time faults and moved up to 5th place.
Marina and Kegas jumped really well too, they kept their pace steady.
I was happily taking pictures of her and was ready to click when I noticed her not taking the jump...
#13...she rode right by id and instead jumped 14. She did have her birthday this weekend, and she now is 14....but she now was eliminated!!!

Sunday I jumped early again, Paktaly made it all look easy and we kept our 5th place.
Marina was allowed to jump, and she had a very nice round. Though lesson learned..we would have both finished 5th...
