O Canada -Shows, Shows And More Shows!
We are now officially in the busiest time of our show season here in Palm Beach and CDI’s are also about to begin in California. I can tell you that the Canadians will have no shortage of competitions, which will include the many “dress rehearsals” everyone who knows me knows I am so fond of. For me, it is so important to have a high degree of confidence in both rider and horse which comes with knowing that they are completely capable of producing excellent results (over 70%) on any given day in each and every “sand box” they enter. This is the very best way to assure riders they will have the best chance to do exactly that well when it comes to doing the major CDI’s.
The thing is that Canadian riders just don’t get the chance to keep showing throughout the year as we who live in Florida and California can, or as the Europeans do year after year. So, not only are we working very hard to raise the bar on daily training, but we are going to keep on showing as often as necessary to gain the experience and exposure to produce a winning squad. I feel extremely confident after our first CDI that we will see the progress with each and every up-coming show.
Cheers!

I think the hard work is about to start paying off Big Time.
Fingers crossed everyone stays healthy and can keep a bit of joy in their lives.
