Arrived in Paderborn to a very wet arena and was not sure how the show is going to go.

Friday – Entered Silver Spring (aka Johnny) in the 1,50m class with 51 starters.  This was a speed class and was very pleased with a good performance of 67.60 seconds and finishing 12th.

Saturday – The Championat Class 1,50m which is a qualification for the Riders Tour, there were 55 starters and Cassiano Z (aka Goofy) was in FANTASTIC form with a beautiful clear round to go into the jump off against 12 other horses and riders, including Marus Ehning, Marco Kutscher, Denis Lynch to name a few.  Goofy has shown his true colours and we have WON this class with a clear round in 42.28 from Marco Kutscher who was clear on Allerdings in 42.47, a difference of 0.19 seconds – very close!!
