Great job and you can certainly see the improvements in the dressage ring, I think if you have the warm up going as good as it did, then the arena will certainly come, lots and lots of practice as you know!! Solo has such great form in SJ, even on little jumps! Congrats!! (great pics as usual!)

Thats a pity you aren't coming to the calgary stampede! I will be there for a few days! congrats on WEG and the barn!

Great pictures! we were there on saturday aswell, the speed round was fun, especially when there is a challenge for the lead, has you on the edge of your seat!! i certainly didn't find it very busy there. The masters is much busier and better for tack stands ie lots of purchasing!!!

Congrats you and Solo!! looks like you had a fab time and Solo did awesome!!! What did you do to his mane???!!! Oh you make me jealous....I want to event, but got one poorly horse and now another lame horse, so am horseless, good job I am getting married this summer, else it'll be a dull summer!!!

I think the owners idea is probably better all around for everyone, saves you having all the responsibility. This is exactly what I did with Wolf was go over every weekend for about a month to ride, I would go catch him and do everything as if he was my own, and it was perfect for me to decide that he was the one. (although I knew it from the moment I saw him really!!)

My Horsey plans, inbetween my wedding plans, why did I decide to get married in July???!!! Is to move Wolfy upto Pre Training eventing level and have a successful season with that and to compete at First level dressage with him. And also to take Victor to some training level schooling dressage shows. Holy now I wrote it down seems like heck of alot!!!

I'd have to disagree slightly with MUST use 2 reins, you can use the leather D attachment that joins both the rings on the bit to one rein, especially if you have a tough time using two reins, which it is a harder thing to master than one rein.

Those are sale pictures??? wow, can't believe that someone would use those as sale pictures, wow, poor horse needs some groceries, look how inwards her butt is. Poor girl is in rough shape, colt doesn't look quiet as bad. 13 and not broke, if I was you I'd look for something young and not broke if that is the way you want to go. But if you want to rescue this horse, you might want to go for it. JMO.

thats funny cause all of the links I go on come to a girl on an appy!

So he's not a team roping horse yet then??!!
