I'm not sure if anyone remembers me and my mare Delilah as I haven't posted anything in ages. Well just some updates on both of us.
Delilah has really progressed, August last year we took her to her second showing show under saddle and she was phenomenal. We won best rider, show riding horse, and show hack. We placed second in show hunter and third in working riding horse. Then to top it off she won overall Show Champion. She behaved amazingly in the group and was one of the calmest horses in the classes despite her being one of the least experienced. In January on my trainer's insistence, we attempted a training elementary show. We came home with 55 and 58, which I was happy with for a first attempt.
End of April we did her first graded Novice competition where we placed second with 68%, we didn't place in the second test but still had 62% with her wanting to look at EVERYTHING. Hopefully, her next show is 27 July
