Vanita (stable name Vinnie) owned by Barry & Heather Truelove competed in the DHI Challenge held at Addington Manor EC in November.
Vinnie performed well and I was really pleased with him but he did seem to find the atmosphere quite daunting!
He tried to cope as best he could but the tension cost him marks in the first test. The second test was a Freestyle to music and this suited him better as I was able to show him off to his best ability. The test was fantastic and he scored a 9 with some great comments from the judges (including Carl Hester).
He came 6th place overall and we were all really pleased with the result and I am looking forward to a great future with him.
