Hello! I am new to Barnmice too! Good luck at your competition. Remember to have fun and so what if you go off course or your horse doesn't listen to you at times- you will have something to laugh about later and almost everyone have been in your sh…
Hi, Kess:
Good for you! Don't worry so much, as Amy says, things happen to international riders all the time, so just accept that you may have to deal with issues during your test too.

Kleng, an 18-year-old Norwegian Fjord horse who has carried hundreds of disabled riders on his strong back over the years at the NorthWest Therapeutic Riding Centre outside Bellingham, Washington, has been honoured for his work.
A $US10,000 reward is being offered by the Bureau of Land Management for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for killing six wild horses in northern Washoe County, Nevada, in early December.
