She was 10 points ahead after dressage and then went clean in cross country and stadium. This was her first event and after 2 or 3 cross country fences, she "got it" and was galloping along, looking for the next fence. Our next events are the Penny Oaks horse trials in IN Aug. 4 & 5, and then we'll be in Erie, PA Aug. 17 & 18. Hope things are well for you guys and the Chief!
