Wednesday In Murireta-Warm Up Day

On the warm up day (day before the show starts) I rode Meyer fairly hard to make sure he was honest with me in the show ring on Thursday. The ride went well and we started to school (train) some movements (half passes, flying changes) we were having issues with earlier on in the week. All in all, it was a good ride and I was feeling more confident going into the show ring. I knew we could put in a steady and safe ride which at that point is all I wanted. Surprisingly, I didn't feel nervous all day and honestly it didn't feel like I had been away from horse shows for such a long time.
We spent the rest of the day cleaning tack, bathing the horses and getting all the necessary paperwork in order.
