Bremen/GER: Successful Weekend for Blind Date

After our victory in the Grand Prix we had to be satisfied with second place in the Special today.

We started off super strong: The trot tour was expressive and effortless with wonderful piaffes and passage. The canter was fine in the beginning until it was time for the flying changes á tempi. I didn't have Blind Date well enough in front of me which led to mistakes that also occured again in the second round of flying changes á tempi. That sure cost a lot of points! So today, after our personal best result yesterday in the Grand Prix, with 72.47 percent, we only managed to finish second.

Blind Date can look back on a successful weekend at the euroclassics in Bremen. It was the first time we appeared in public after Salzburg last year and I am pleased to see that we have continued to grown together more and more. 

Balmoral W and Brigitte Wittig/GER took third place.

But now I'm going to take some time off and try to get rid of my cold so that I will hopefully be fit again for the show in Dortmund/GER...
