#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#My girlfriend is bringing her young stallion there, apparently he's showing all 4 days, being ridden by a lovely young rider.  Got my fingers crossed for them!!  He really wants to be a jumper but he's doing a fine job as a dressage pony.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Is he a real pony (as in under 14.2)? I am always on the lookout for suitors for Allie.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#No, he's 17.1 - when I say young rider I meant Young Rider #ed_op#IMG src="http://forums.equestrianconnection.com/richedit/smileys/Teasing/5.gif"#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

[Judy F]

YUP!!!

[Chisholm]

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Yes I was!  And I was looking to see the owner of Galen following along and never saw you.  You should have come and introduced yourself!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I whipped Thursday and Saturday down in Ring 2 & 3.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Looked like the show was going really well.  Weather was perfect!  A bit hot this afternoon, but a really nice breeze.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Judy F was there too, scoring!  Saw at least one other ECer but I can't think of her handle on here.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#hehe then I was standing by you quite a bit I was not quite sure cause i have never seen a clear picture but I thought you looked familiar....  I even talked to you shortly while I was watching a friend warm up... you were talking to a guy about the plastic bag he was holding and how it would scare your horse and I said something about most just expecting treats to come from the bag...#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#That is too bad that I did not speak up but as you will see in the general thread  was just not sure how to introduce myself when I am not 100% sure if I have the right person!!!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Did you get to watch Galen go at all?  What did you think?#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#so how'd everyone do?#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

[zooka]

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Galen did amazing she placed in each of her training level classes and started the weekend off with a 70%!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

[Adi]

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I did very well with my mare, at second level, all of my scores were in the 60's except one and we placed in every class. I was very pleased with our overall performances as they were vastly improved from our last national show, definitely very consistant, now I just need to get her a little more in self carriage!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

We were there all 4 days as the official photographers. Over 8,000
pictures taken that we now have to organize! We'll be doing that this
weekend and posting on www.thehorseseye.com . The other photographer on
site was www.in-focus.cc (working for Objective Art).
