August 2010

In summary:

• Organised and ran an associate dressage event on behalf of the AWHA and Lockyer Equestrian Group

• Competed Elite Waldo Pepper and Remi London Belle at the Fraser Coast Dressage Championships. Waldo placed 2nd in both official novice classes. RLB placed 5th and 6th in her official medium classes and won the medium freestyle.

• Competed at the NSW Dressage Championships with Elite Waldo Pepper in the official preliminary. RLB did not get a start in the medium for which she was a reserve. Waldo was unplaced in both tests but I was happy with his performance.

• Competed at a Club level at the Lockyer Equestrian Group of which I am a member with RLB winning her 2 medium tests and Waldo winning one preliminary and placing 2nd in the other.

• Both horses have been accepted for the Qld State Dressage Championships and RLB has been entered and accepted to compete at the National Dressage Championships in medium. I did not enter Waldo as I did not think the journey to Sydney was in his best interests.

• I have been doing a lot of coaching with one of my regular students Anna Macmillan this week travelling to Sydney to contest the National Interschool event in the dressage at elementary level.
