The arabs were out and about this weekend at our local riding club SJ and dressage show ;D
NOt having done a SJ course for about 20yrs I dont know what possesed me to enter Tammuz for the clear round and novice class
Tammuz has only ever gone over a wee cross pole and has NEVER done a course of jumps 
But we did it. I have never been so nervous in my life My boy was a total star and with ears pricked forward he done everything for me ;D. Even the dressage in the afternoon he behaved really well, and was not even spooked at the cafe noise at the top of the arena!!! (We were at SNEC)
My friend Heather took her pure bred mare "The Dreamcatcher" and she WON the intermediate SJ class, and performance arabians had there part bred mare there and she won the open class ;D Yeah the arabs ;D ;D ;D
Just goes to show we should not be worried about going out with our arabs to "normal" events. We were yery much welcome at the riding club event, with some lovley comments about how exceptionally well behaved our horses are.
