News from the Raleigh CDI

We had a great morning! Degas and I ended up 3rd in the Prix St George at the Raleigh CDI. I was the second rider to go, so was very pleased with my 66.491%, just a breadth away from second! I told Brian, who also happens to be my groom for the weekend, that Degas didnt feel as 'Zippy' as he has been feeling at home. So I was pretty happy for not being too 'zippy'.

Speaking of grooming, I happen to have a very good one this weekend (however, Lauren is a very tough act to follow). He did a superb job of setting up Degas' fan in the corner of the stall facing down. So good that all the other husbands are being asked to do the fans "just like that one". Brian is worried that all the husband and fathers will hate him now!

Speaking of fathers, the reason I say this, is that we happen to be in the Young Rider Isle. We are surrounded by young riders with their families. I must be there because of my 'glowing and young complexion'....

Yesterday was a great day. Frank filled you in on my HorsegirlTV experience. I had a great time, and it was great practice for being on the news on June 17th!

I will find out my ride times later tonight. If I don't ride at the crack of dawn my father and sister will come up to see!
