Just wanting to let you know that i went to Forest Edge at the weekend in Norfolk to jump the Newcomers. I was hoping to get my last double clear, in order to qualify myself for the second rounds at the end of May / beginning of April.
I managed it, plus I even came in second place as a bonus!
Now i have managed to achieve all my qualifications I will be able to concentrate more on getting the stallion out to his first few shows, and seeing whether he is as talented as her and manages to win some nice colourful ribbons!

On the 11th of December I went to Patchetts, where there was a Blue Chip Qualifier at Newcomer level.
My horse, The Portlaoise Errigal Cat and I had already qualified for the Discovery Blue Chip in first place!
So to top off this fantastic season, she also qualified for the Newcomers at Blue Chip where she qualified in 3rd place!!
I had a fabulous fan club that arrived at Patchetts to support me headed by Emma and some of the liveries.
I had a fantastic fun day topped off with a great result! 

Here is a photograph I got off the photographers of portlaoise errigal cat at Addington Manor Equestrian Centre.
It was the 5th and 6th of November where I took her here and I was delighted to manage to come third as it was a big show with a very high standard of riding.

This weekend I went to Norton Heath EC and managed again a lovely double clear and came 4th, so was again very proud of the mare for doing so well.

At the moment it is very important to me to get four double clears as that will qualify me for what is called the second round newcomer so hopefully me and portlaoise Errigal cat (curragh) will manage that! We have already managed to qualify for the winter league which is blue chip where we qualified in an amazing 1st place !!
