Allie in her first dressage
lesson
How far we have come - at the
first combined trial of the Season Lilly only did w/t at her first dressage test
and Stephen decided not to do Stadium - that was April 2011 at Grandview.
She did her first cross country schooling in June. Fast
forward to October 2, 2011 - Grandview Fall Horse Trial - their third full event
- Dressage score was 10% better than a month earlier, a beautiful stadium round
and her third clear cross country. Prior to the last fence, Lilly slipped
and almost went down - Stephen almost came off but she righted and he stayed on
but lost his right stirrup - the last jump - with no stirrup - the reason he was
riding a bit to the left. In all three events she did this season she did not
have a single refusal cross country. One run out stadium (rider error) and
finished with a lot of confidence and skill to move up to pretraining next year.

like it when hobbes is on my lap. So Hobbes decided that Strom's back

pics of her last two events with Mitchell. We bought Asper as a 3 yr old in 2005
for Mitchell - they really hit their grove this year culminating with a 3rd at
grandview and qualifying for the champs - she sold the next day. Now Mitch will
ride her rio grande daughter and we will have to find a new mount for Stephen.
