Pony Club - 30/10/2012

Another GREAT rally with Ginny this evening. Did showjumping in the Massey Pony Club's Main Events Paddock (Save our main events paddock!) Did a small course up to 80cm, so no real challenge. Sky was quite naughty, acting like a slug and then taking of with his head in the air. Although the jumps were small, we did a lot of tricky combinations including a skinny. I was really surprised when we got through the whole rally without having any troubles with the cheveron. It certainly looked like the sort of fence that Sky would run out at. We did some tight turns, fortunately Sky is good at these as some less supple combinations came to grief!!! He is still quite strong, even with the copper roller, so I think I will try him in a grackle next rally. Forgot the martingale which was frustrating, as I ran the serious risk of having a Sky neck smacking me in the face. Went straight on to the float this evening, which was a relief, fingers crossed it will be the same next time.
