Tangle was the only one that I ran in Regional tournaments this year. Tip is pretty much retired, Split could have run but I didn't enter him this time. He only got to run titling classes.
This was one of those trials where there were magnificent things that happened in addition to winning Byes and Bling.
I can't even tell you how proud I am with Tangle's AFrame for one. He ran 11 AFs this weekend and only missed one. Also we had many deep hits. Just thrilled!! He only dropped one bar this weekend, bars are not a problem for us, but noteworthy for sure. Also, I felt that his speed was improving.
In Regional GP round 2 he would have placed third if not for a teeter fault (guess what is on our training list) and in Steeple Chase Regional Round 2 he would have placed second but he knocked a bar (those silly two bar hillbilly spreads). Proud of him for making it to round 2 in both Steeplechase and Grand Prix!!
Split had many moments of brilliance as well. Q in Gamblers and Snooker--yeah Split. He made all three of his running DWs. Performed each of his teeters like a champ, and downed on the table. All of which has been challenges. Loved that what we have been training is improving in trials!!
