I hope people don't mind me sharing these pictures and gushing just a little bit 
This was Dennis's first dressage competition a couple of weeks ago. He came third with the respectable score of 65.22%, the first and second where 'proper' dressage horses!
And although this picture isn't technically correct I just love his expression as he's concentrating so hard!
By the way please excuse the ermmmm porkiness! His waistline expanded somewhat when I moved him onto the winter grazing

| Lovely photos and what a great score. I wish I could get that much weight on Spider. I do the same running plait for dressage. He looks very smart. |

Vera, how dare you be so rude, he is a proper "dressage horse", just a beginner!
Well done Dennis and tell your mum to have more faith in you!!!!!!

Thank you all for your lovely comments, they mean a lot to me 
Becky - its easy when they're clipped right out!
Pat - sadly no I have severely lacked motivation to lose the last two stone before riding him. I don't really mind just having him in my life is enough 
Nadia - the judge commented that it was nice that I had plaited him

| Very smart plait Vera and a very smart Dennis. What a clever boy he is getting third first time out and good scores. I am sure you dont care if you never ride him again when he looks that good. I could watch him all day. |
