This was our second time at the Mimosa Cup in Caledeon. We rode on the Hunter Pace in the morning (5 min too fast for a placing!! he he!), and in the Parade of Hounds/Mock Hunt. My horse 'finally' got to catch up to the hounds at the end of the demo hunt- so he was completely thrilled! Just a carpet of hounds all around his feet! And ... lastly we entered into the Mimosa Cup pairs race held over the same ~6km course as the Hunter Pace in the morning. Tali and Steel got a pretty respectable 8th place finish at 21min+20sec... only about 28 sec off of 7th place!
Overall- a completely great day for riders and horses at a great, friendly club with excellent terrain and footing (and jumps) on the course!
The horses have so much fun getting a good gallop on through the long forested pathways... and you just can't stop smiling. How wonderful is that!!!
