2009-2010 Show Season Inc Dressage

This season will see Titan & Jissel out competing in hand and under saddle as well as turing a hoof at some HRCAV dressage events. 

~ March 27th saw Titan at the AHAA state show in Tatura where he impressed everyone by winning Champion Led FW in a field of 6 and Champion Ridden FW in a field of 4.  I am very happy with him for trying so hard and he was very happy with the kilo of carrots he got as a reward!

~ March 8th saw Titan competing at HRCAV dressage.  We had horrible weather & I soon learnt that he does not like being ridden into the rain!  We got a shocking 52% in our first test but managed to raise the bar for an impressive 68% in our second test.

~ January 25th 2010 saw Titan at the Melbourne Summer Royal Horse Show where he won Best Presented of the Breed!  He also won his led class & came 3rd in the ridden.

~ November 22nd saw a very wet Titan at the Catani A&H show!  We came home with Champion Led FW but scratched out of our ridden events due to the grounds being slippery.

~ November 21st saw Jissel at the Lilydale A&H show.  She behaved beautifully and came home with 2nd led mare & 1st ridden mare.  Jissel will now return to breeding duties and has been bred to Remmelt 323 by frozen semen.

~ November 15th saw Jissel at the Dandenong A&P show for friesian horse classes.  She came home with 2 purple sashes and I came home with a very big grin on my face!

~ November 8th saw Titan competing in another hrcav dressage event in lv 4.  He was tense in his first test with a socre of 60.5% but improved in his second test with 63.1%

~ October 30th saw Titan hitting the trails in Worri Yallock!  It was a very hot day but we had a lot of fun & met some new horses & people.

~ October 25th saw Titan competing at a HRCAV dressage comp in lv 4 & lv 3 dressage.  He didnt place but managed to score the same % in both classes. 

~ October 15th saw Titan at the Geelong Royal for breed classes.  He was awarded Champion Led Friesian Warmblood and reserve champion ridden FW!  Go Titan!!

~Otober 11th saw Titan and his mate Hendrik fan Friso competing in a costumed pairs dressage event!  We had a ball and attracted lots of comments in our gothic capes!

~ October 4th saw Jissel and Dublin out competing at the Harness Horse Society of Vic Barastoc show.  Both horses competed in hand and Jissel also had a go at being driven in long reins.  Jissel placed 2nd and was awarded Reserve Champion Open breed mare as well as winning Champion Purebred Friesian!!  She also came second in the long reining class.  Dublin was awarded 3rd place in Led FW gelding :-)

~ August 22nd saw Jissel at the Welsh Society pre royal show at Ayr Hill. It was her first show under saddle and to be honest she behaved very well.  We came home with a red, a white & a green ribbon.
