Real quick summary:
-competed at Rocking Horse 2, had a rough show jumping landing us in 8th place (ehh but yay)
-spent a week training with Karen in Ocala, learned so incredibly much (yayy)
-competed at Pine Top, after 3 attempted warm ups in the rain had an okay test but was fast and clean landing me in 6th (ehh then yayy)
-Apollo started acting really funny before and at Full Gallop, so i put in a circle in sj eliminating me but gave him a better round (horses are more important than scores)
-Came back and took him to Southern Pines Equine where the amazing Dr. Tom injected his hocks
-Apollo is actually moving underneath himself now (yay!)
-Switched Apollo to a nave bit (basically just plastic, very soft and flexible) for show jumping and dressage after the french link bits kept giving him cuts in the corners of his mouth (sad)
-Apollo now reaches into the bridle (yay!)
Now we're gearing up for Fair Hill in less than 2 weeks where we're gonna do the CIC2* and then seeing how that goes either do the CCI2* at Jersey in May or the CIC2*.
I'll actually keep everything up-to-date during/after Fair Hill, cause I know you all missed me terribly.
Arrivederci!
