Thumbs up Horse Show! *pics included*

Hey guys!

Well as you may have seen from EQ's thread, we went to a show in Red Deer on the weekend. Unfortunately I was not able to ride Bopp, she was tied up in her pony club duties (long story ) So anyways, I rode her brother instead. His name is Red, show name "KGB Copper Cat" and he did so awesome for me. I got to ride him only once before the show, so I was a bit aprhensive about it.

I only was entered in 3 classes, because his usual rider and leaser also had to get riding time on him, but nevertheless I was quite pleased with our performance! I came home with two ribbons!

Showmanship - 2nd Place
Junior Hunter Equitation- 2nd Place
Open English Pleasure- 6th Place

What was really cool though, was the fact that I was actually able to show Red successfully, after only riding him once... that was the best part!

and here are the pics....

1. me and him in the stall, night before.
2. entering ring for showmanship
3. squaring up... he looks alot like Bopp!
4. trotting back into lineup
5. coming around the corner awwww i love his face
6. ribbon happy!
7. In the stall... gorgeous boy!
8. trotting in equitation
9. cantering... I love this pic!!!
10. in the lineup!

enjoy!!!!

Congratulations!!!! He's so pretty!

It's funny-we used to have an Arabian named Copper Cat! His barn name was Charlie.
