Dream continues to be a dream

Alice and Dream

“This week, we took Dream (Headmore Dream On) to Merrist Wood on Saturday 28 to do a couple more elementary tests. She warmed up well for the first test, which was being judged by the same low scoring judge as our previous trip there, and the test was good apart from a few annoying silly mistakes such as she fidgeted in the halts and we had an unexpected flying change which proved to be very costly as we were third, just two marks behind the winner, with a score of 65.94%, which is also quite irritating as it was just below the qualifying score... VERY expensive mistakes!

Dream soon to go Medium

She then did a second test for the first time since she’d been back and she was much more settle and much more on my aids than in the first test. It was the hardest test she had done and I was very pleased with it, it felt much better than the first test and it was mistake free, there were just a few wobbly moments as it was quite a difficult test for her at the moment. She scored 71.4% and won, so now she has very nearly completed her elementary qualification so she will hopefully be going out a medium soon as well!”
