Middleton is Outstanding in his first Novice Dressage

I am still slightly stunned that my lovely 4 year old Middleton came 2nd last Friday in his first ever Novice dressage test, scoring over 70%. So pleased with him.

Not any old Novice test either, it was in the very atmospheric Hartpury Arena where they hold the cic3* tests at the FEI event in the summer. He didn't hardly bat an eyelid at the judges red table cloth or the banners surrounding the arena.

The judge loved him, his test can be watched https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152439404940382
