PONY CLUB CAMP - Day 7

Gymkhana Day!

Chelsea borrowed Willow for the gymkhana, so Willow was a member of the Red Team for the day. They started out with Musical Corners, which Willow did quite well in for a while, but then she got out.

Next was Bending and Willow won a dead heat to the finish to secure the win for the Red team. Go pony!

Then Flag race and Chelsea missed the flag on her first attempt so had to circle. Red team dropped a couple of flags so they didn't do too well in this event.

Then they went to the jumping and Chelsea jumped her over a few fences, accumulating 17 points and then jumping the small Joker for another 50 points, making up 67 points total.

Next was Barrel race and Willow clocked 25 seconds, turning tighter than Chelsea expected! She wasn't too quick between the barrels but she FLEW home.

Last was Handy Hunter, and she did quite well here, taking the low jumping options, but having no problems with the sack carry, maze or cross country jumps.

All in all she was a very good girl and Chelsea really enjoyed riding her.
