We enjoyed our lesson today

It was with SBN. Mr WoW has pretty much disappeared off the radar, unfortunately, which is a hell of a shame but can't be helped.

Wilson has been going better and better every day lately and I love him so much I think my heart will burst. It's mutual, too.

We ran through tomorrow's tests. Basically my problem is that I don't set him up sufficiently for the transitions, particularly trot-canter. I know I panic slightly about canter transitions for some reason. Anyway, I have to get him really round and keep him there so that we have a better chance of making the transitions, and I need to use every available centimetre of the arena so that I have as much time as possible to prepare. Makes sense!

N25 wasn't too bad except for the rubbishy trot-walk and trot-canter transitions. We even got some MT. I asked SBN if she'd have given us any 8s and she said No but a lot of 7s - and just as I was about to ask What about our G&Rs, she corrected herself and said she'd have given us 8s for them :pleased:

N28 - well, again rubbishy trot-canter transitions but some damn good canter, if I say so myself.

So let's see what tomorrow brings.
