Warming up. He was actually more forward than he felt at the time. I think my brain was going fast.

"Enter at A in medium trot..."

Medium walk, and Zorro's love of stomping things is stronger than my ability to steer.

Most of the test was in trot. Looking back at the video I'm actually pretty happy with how we're going. I mean, there are a lot of ways we could be better, but for the work we have put in and what I expected, things came out pretty well all in all.

And I won't tell you about the tent falling down during our halt/salute and a series of leaps from the ring with an especially lively mare over one (very long summer)
That looks great to me! Nicely ridden!
