So proud, i'm bursting ;D, Emily took her new pony, Hippo, into her first show today, she done the Thelwell Type class & came second, Emily had to trot, the judge said that as shes so small (shes only 3) she only had to do a few strides, but when I bought Hippo back to walk, Emily said, no mummy, keep trotting!. Hippo was so well behaved & Emily was so cute, she smiled the whole time & told the judge that she loved her pony, the judge really took her time to talk to all the children & take an interest in their ponies. I got a really nice comment on my dressage test sheet too, "Well done, a lovely partnership", we got 4th, it was only a walk trot test, but we had so much fun The only slight downside was that we went in the handsomest gelding & one of the blokes commented that Kids should not be allowed in the class, what is wrong with some people, it was a FUN SHOW, he beat us anyway, so whats his problem, you always get one I suppose I should have pics soon.

Soooooo glad you had a good day. Your daughter looks lovely and the grin says it all lol. Take no notice of the mardy adults, very sad to take it out on a 3 yr old.

Thank you all so much for the nice comments , Hippo is now finally off box rest following his bout of laminitis . So hopefully Emily will be back in the saddle again soon ;D
