Sorry we are late today but we had a 6pm start time for Zaino and then the presentation afterwards. I decided to ride after all as it was such a late time and would give Zaino more time to recover. We are both absolutely shattered I am relieved not to have any shows now until Wednesday. This was a very good test the best yet and 2 of the 3 judges had him in 2nd place. I am just pleased that he is gaining in confidence all of the time and he is trying his very best remembering he is only 7 year old unlike most of the class. He was still a little tired hence coming onto the forehand a little but we can forgive him this at this point in time. BB had just a walk in hand today, but he was extremely jealous of Zaino when we were getting Zaino ready its so funny. I had a lie in this morning while my groom (Phil) cleaned the tack for me and did the boys he really is getting good at this !!! Phil is 50 tomorrow so I will be getting up to do the horses to give him a lie in and a treat.
Zaino came 5th today only 0.5% off of 2nd

Great result with Zaino today so glad he is getting used to it all now. It has been a good learning curve for him I think. What a good job you have such a good groom ! They are worth their weight in gold Jo !! It looks like you had better weather so hope it holds for you now until end of the month. Glad hou can have a rest for a few days now it will do you all good including Zaino and BB.
Glad to hear Zaino did well again and lovely to see the ‘photo of
yourself and Zaino ‘in the sun’.
We hope that after ‘horse chores’ you will have a day off to
celebrate Philip’s 50th.
Love from both xx
Hi!
Happy to hear that Zaino started behaving like a good boy and wish you good luck! Try to win a show! I hardly recognized Zaino, he is so much lighter – he used to be almost black, and now he’s becoming a bay horse 🙂
