BOLESWORTH CLASSIC

After a couple of weekends off, Lucy and I went to my absolute favourite show of the year the Bolesworth Classic, held in the grounds of the beautiful Bolesworth Castle in Tattenhall. This year we went on the Friday as they were holding the Scope Novice qualifier on that day. Lucy was keen from the off I think in hindsight her little break may not have been the best idea! First up was the British Novice, held in the Lake Arena. It was very spooky and Lucy got a bit flat again and very uncharacteristically had 3 fences down. I put it down to being a bit fresh and put her back in the trailer to wait for the Scope Novice to start. In between classes the heavens opened and we got soaked so we took shelter in the Joules stand and looked at all the lovely clothes! I walked the course for the Novice which was quite a meaty 1m. I worked Lucy in really concentrating on getting her to listen and she felt much better. I took her in the ring and she was rather keen and strong and just hit fence 2 for 4 faults. I was pleased with her as it was an improvement over quite a big track. I bought 2 lovely photographs from Blue Print studio to give to Lucys owner.



Our next outing is Bold Heath BE 90.
