This is only a week overdue!
Sorry guys!
No news on raffle money as I put it in a box that's at my parents house...I shall rescue it this evening and count it up.
Pretty in Pink Performance Live was the 6th in our Colours of the Rainbow Lives series. This show was a performance only show including novice and tack appreciation sections.

What is Performance?
Performance is when horses are shown with tack in set ups. In the UK riders/handlers are mandatory (unless not appropriate - for example a field scene).
Performance classes are usually split by discipline e.g. Show Jumping or Western Pleasure.
This show also had a tack appreciation section - here the workmanship and fit of the tack was judged and horses were shown without handlers or riders.

Another show jumping entry, I love this entry, the horse looks like it is really going for it in a jump off
Having a little bit of fun, my interpretation of the viral 'naked showjumper' video complete with gay pride jump! I do really need to get a decent GP saddle and English rider so this horse can have a bit more dignity
