Matthew decided it would be nice to support our local show. Unfortunately they do not have any jumping so working hunter it is!
It was not the best of weather in fact it was torrential all day but this did not put Matthew off as we were confident in our new Yaris waterproof rugs for keeping Bailey dry and well Matthew will just have to get wet.
It stopped raining long enough for Matthew and Bailey to strut their stuff, finishing the jumping as the only clear then trying to break the record for the most flying changes in a working hunter class ever.
Yes you guessed it they won, Hurray, once presented with his trophy Matthew dismounted and headed straight for the beer tent job done !!!!
Bailey looking less than enthusiastic for his next class. He certainly does not loose sleep over being away from home as seen here at Ingliston in temporary stabling and Boldsworth.
Well he is ready to compete in his second rounds of Newcomers at Southview, he Competed at Area 14a in Foxhunter and 125 and won what more can we say, the power over them fences is just something else.
Bailey S was a little fresh as he had a quieter week but he settled down as he went through his classes, he is a character chap
He competed on the Saturday in the Newcomers, then 115 and Foxhunter on the Sunday. He made an easier job of the 115 but surprised himself jumping rather large over a big oxer then being surprised at a quick turn into a water jump as the first part to a double, just showing he is still a bit green.
Bailey S He really is a true star, not only does he look stunning his jump is effortless, he competed at Myerscough this weekend full of life and enjoying his job. Clearing his Newcomers class ready for moving up to something bigger.
