    You and Jancis having the mad bants was hilarious!
    Incey went so well in the dressage and showjumping, such a shame she didn't like the ditch on the cross country. In fairness it did look a bit odd, with the grass then the woodchip that must've looked like the Grand Canyon to the horses, no wonder so many of them went "You wot mate?!" and noped out. Course builder could have painted the edges of the ditch a lighter colour 💖

      Shame as could be a lovely galloping track but it was strange design and layout. Very small and trappy. Some odd distances as well, oh well, a good Xc horse should go round any course so no excuses. See what happens at Cirencester 🤞

    Hello from Australia. Anyone who interacts with other species knows about this kind of day.
    On the weekends you go to stately homes and parks for picnics and exercise. Anything else is a bonus.
    Jancis saying "who knows what they see" reminded me that horses don't see the same colours that we do. If the XC obstacles were viewed in black & white would there be enough contrast for them to be not difficult or not scary? Or would some markings look like eyes etc?

      Mares definitely think quicker and have more about them than geldings (sorry Robbie) they also have some negatives which is they can be a pain in the arse! Always learning with horses. Wouldn’t life be dull if we knew it all.

    What a shame. Those hormones have a lot to answer for!.... the dressage was very nice, under difficult conditions, which was nicely acknowledged by the judges. I've not seen her bouncy buck behind in a while....😅. The XC was causing a few issues I think. I follow Meg Elphick, and although she was in a different class, she had a stop/step back sadly.
    Still it was a good event and the blue jacket was very smart.

    Probably a bit of PMT! She spooked at the dice one and that made her suspicious of the next one which was a bit spooky because of the different surface for the ditch. But good dressage even though she didn't like the rain, and good show jumping.
