7th September, 2002. Caroline does not want the summer holidays to finish. This year she takes her GCSEs so she won't be riding every day, we hope we have a sharer who looks like she'll help Dax with his training.

In the mean time she thought she'd just do another little dressage competition! Local to the riding stable where Dax is liveried. Enough competition to make them both work well. More scores of 6 and 7 and even an 8!! At the halt he stood in a straight square and he's never done that before.

General comment "Lots to like in this test but at present lacks balance in the canter work and becoming overbent and on the forehand. Will do well with more test experience."

Great test and Caroline (centre) got a score of 146 and was rewarded with a 3rd.
