[DavidH]

(has this cured you of lingering dressage diva-yness?).

Nope, its made it worse. he should have scored in the 70's but I elected not to put studs in for dressage as ground was so hard and I didn't want to put the strain on his joints. As a result he slipped a lot and lost confidence.
He will be doing BD soon (15th June) as I want to qualify him for pet plan finals and possibly BD regionals.

 

[DavidH]

Any more pics? Your horse is gorgeous!

Sadly no. The weather prevent any sort of electrical equipment being used.
I do have his dressage on vid which I will post if people want to see it and his score sheet for comparison

 

[DavidH]

Thank you all for the wonderful replies.
I will admit to feeling more than a little emotional about it this morning.
I can not believe how well he ran for me in horrendous conditions.
A true star. His owner is still in shock as well.

Congratulations, the weather couldn't have been any worse, well done
