Washington Wrap-Up
Just came out from under the pile of homework, reports and packing for Syracuse and the Maclay, to give you a few of my impressions of the jumper phase and final work-off.
The jumper phase course included a skinny oxer, roll back to a vertical, and a liver pool oxer. The time allowed got adjusted and extended but some riders still had time faults. In the evening, the work-off course was the same as the jumper phase without the time allowed.
Whimsey was really good and we were 8th!
Just wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported my riding efforts; my parents, my high school and it's teacher's, my trainers, the EquiSearch.com contingent, the owners and trainers who have provided catch rides and, my friends. Without your help and support, I wouldn't be doing this! But most of all, I want to thank, Whimsey, because he has taught me soooo much and I love him with all my heart!
Talk to you soon!
