What a Star!

I was away at the weekend so missed the team chase. Smem was going to take Zorya but unfortunately she was lame. So it was Ruby she ended up on.

The team were 20 seconds over the time allowed and Ruby did a lovely clear, even choosing the intermediate hedge as the last fence (Pip and Taz stopped in front of her but Ruby just ploughed on regardless).

Smem's got a lovely photo of her flying over a hedge. Apparently she wasn't even blowing when they'd finished! Unfortunately they didn't think Ruby'd be fit enough for next weekend's at Winwick so she hasn't got a place in a team. Unless someone else pulls out. It's a big course, fairly hilly and with some big post and rails to finish. No doubt someone with chicken out at the last minute!

I hope she gets the chance to ride if that's what she's really wanting to do. It's always hard to be in that position where you're waiting for someone else to decide if you can or can't.
