Description

I am getting round to replying to my notes... just slowly :XD:

First part of my entry for BH Papped By A Rockstar aka Petal in the OHSF CCI* three day event.

She has a large bottom. And a chatty mouth.

More details to come later, as ever.

Petal's design by *Mendokusee

"She's really not ready for this, you know," Jemima said, scowling at Aaron as he hitched the dark horse up in the lorry.
"I know. And you also know I wanted to take Juno too, but Charlie got to decide who you were riding, so he is the one you should be making that face at," the small man replied, turning back and ignoring Petal's firm wuffling into the back of his shoulders.
Jemima continued to scowl, but turned her expression to the horse rather than the man now. Petal was not, in almost any way, prepared for her first CCI ranked event.
Her dressage was fine. Good, in fact. Jemima had actually taken her to a few ranked dressage shows to get the chubby mare a bit of experience while also getting her a bit of exercise before she started her eventing career proper. But the difficult the mare had with combination fences didn't seem to be decreasing, even after her training session at Oak Hollow and extremely extensive work back at home. At first Marion and Aaron had thought it might be a problem of the rider, but even Charlie had difficulty persuading the silver warmblood that she needed to jump the second part of a double fence.
"It's not you that's going to be embarrassed by this.. no one ever comes and mocks the trainer after the event," Jemima muttered as Aaron began stowing Petal's tack in the trunk along with the others. Petal was the last to load - mostly because she was generally placid enough to put anywhere and she'd never objected to lorries or boxes. She was an easy enough horse until you tried to take her around a course of any sort.
"Yeah, but the Oak Hollow lot'll probably rip the piss out of both of us," he replied with a less-than-subtle wink. "And anyway, I don't know what you're worrying about. She's good at dressage."
If he hadn't been quick on his feet, Aaron may well have spent the drive to Northumberland laid out on the floor from a very firmly thrown punch.
