Brookie did the 90cm amateur 2nd round, having gone clear in the first round she was drawn 1st to go in the jump off, but did a lovely fast double clear.
Rupert was entered also in the 90cm amateur 2nd round with another rider but when we saw her she said she didn't want to do it on him so asked if i wanted to. So a quick swap and off i went, going clear in the first round, i was then drawn last in the jump off. Brook was still in the lead just as i was going in and there was only one other clear so all i had to do to qualify was go clear or a quick 4 faults. I went clear again taking the double clears up to 3 out of about 50! But I had exactly the same time as brook which meant i was equal 1st on both horses! Which very rarely ever happens, and i don't think i could do it again if i tried!
I then did a lovely double clear on brook in the 1.05 and came 2nd.
