Arrived and set up camp on Wednesday. Thursday saw us getting up early plaiting all eight ponies before the trot up in front of the vets and fei stewards. All past easily. Then in the afternoon Averina Snow drove her pair in the dressage phase in a class of 17. They went very well but unfortunately due to a couple of small driver errors missed the magic 65 score by 2 points.

Friday saw us starting to walk the obstacles in the morning before Rowena Moyse drove the dressage test with the pony team getting a 61 score thereby getting her two qualifying scores for the world pony championship in Hungary at the end of the season. Then more walking of obstacles.

We are here at lisieux for our first foreign competition
