Refusing from the starting box…
We did it! Our first one day event! And her feet? Absolutely fine the ground was perfect for her not too hard or too soft. Granted the dressage felt a bit slippy and the jumping I protected her round because I didn't want us fly round and slipping but nothing that was sore for her [...]
