WooHoo Selby's a star!!

Just got back on Tuesday morning from 4 weeks overseas. Jet lag and the heat meant it was a very short training session Tuesday night so we went into Wednesday's jumping trial with very low expectations. Well I did anyway, Selby had other ideas. I was sure she knocked the 3rd bar but we got a surprise at the presentations to find out that she had not only gone clear for her 2nd pass, but had also gained 1st place again. What a star.
Best thing was how well Selby was running with me, following my lead, not even looking like biting my hand and running a beautiful smooth course. Pity I had such low expectations I didn't get it filmed :(
Now for the next trial Friday night - Agility and Jumping this time - will be interesting to see how we go at weaving, who knows maybe the time off has helped with them too! (Can only hope)
One more pass in Jumping and Selby will have her 1st title. That would be fantastic except then I'd have to try to negotiate excellent courses!
