It has been some kind of crazy hot all up and down the east coast! I have hardly been riding my own horses, quite frankly.... Revi is getting kind of ticked off, every time she sees me come up to the barn she starts running around the paddock bucking and doing sliding stops. Come on mom, let's JUMP something!
I have ridden her a few times in the new Micklem bridle, which she seems to like.... we did a combined test at Rivendale and she was really good aside from spooking slightly at some birds in the covered ring during the dressage test. She jumped very nicely around in stadium and finished 2nd. She's doing very well in the year end points at this point! Time to start getting her back to work to prep for the fall season....
Seattle Jones went to another horse trial at the Carolina Horse Park and jumped around beginner novice, winning on his dressage score + one rail (barely tapped that sucker!) He is doing fabulously and so far this season has three mares in foal on first cycle, waiting on an u/s on the fourth!
Bolivia, my semi-retired Intermediate horse, had her Formula One foal early Saturday morning, about three weeks early. A very refined filly--looks like she will have Livi's gazelle-like build but shorter-coupled, and she is a handful already!
