Wairarapa A&P Show

Went to Carterton for the day today. Everyone wanted to be home to watch the All Blacks in the World Cup Final on Sunday. We had a great day. Both Bayly and Korah jumped in ring 1 for the first time and Sally did her first junior rider class.

Maggie had 4 faults in the 1:10 and although she had 4 rails in the Junior Rider Class we were very happy with how well Sally rode and how well they performed.

Potter had just one rail in the 1:10 in ring 1 and then gave Korah a real hard ride in the 1m class in ring 2 for 4 faults. 

Tommy jumped well in the 1:10 in ring 1 and then was really slack in the 1m class in ring 2.

Bayly rode Briggs much better today getting round both the 80cm and the 90cm class.

Wairarapa Show Jumping & Show Hunter

This weekend we had Tommy, Briggs, Maggie and Potter on board. 

Tommy jumped well all weekend. Very long courses and to be fair it was probably Bayly's loss of concentration after getting through some tricky combinations and lines that resulted in an uncharacteristic stop in his two 1:10 classes.

Briggs in the 85cm

Maggie was good all weekend. Clear in the 1m & 1:10 on Sunday and just 2 rails in the 1:10 on Monday

Potter was fantastic all weekend. Korah stepped up to 1:10 on Sunday and just had two rails. On Monday they were 3rd in the 1:05

First official outing of the season and we just went through to Foxton for the day. Tommy & Potter not fit enough yet to stand in the yards all night & jump again the next day but both got prizes in their 90cm classes (their only start).

Maggie started in the 1m for 4 faults and the 1.10 for 8 faults.

Tommy was 6th in the 90cm

Potter was 5th in the 90cm
