Hello,
Since you are talking about me I will tell you what happened and then you can do the right thing.
The show was in Germany, all anouncements were in German which is a language that I do not understand!!!!
This competition was two classes run at the same time the CRI and an AQHA senior reining with 58 horses entered they stopped the class after 33 horses and did the prize ceromony for the CRI.
I was never informed that there was to be a prize ceromony half way thru the class, When another Swedish competitor informed me that I should go to the ceromony, I was doing what Í should be doing which was caring for DUN IT WITH CHARM the horse that had won the prize for me. He had just been washed and had his legs bandaged as at this time we thought we stll had more than 25 horses to be shown before the ceromony. I would not take the horse away from his food while he was still wet and saddle him for any reason; I have much more respect for him than that.
I now had about thirty seconds warning to attend the ceromony, my desicion was to go without the horse was for his benifit.
ADDITIONALLY MANY OF THE RIDERS IN THE CEDROMONY WERE NOT RIDING THE HORSE THAT HAD WON THE PRIZE FOR THEM, THEY EITHER BORROWED ANOTHER HORSE OR RODE THE ONE THEY WERE GETTING READY FOR THE NEXT CLASS. THIS I FEEL IS MUCH MORE DISRESPECTFUL!!!
The associations that I hold judges cards with have no rulés about attending the prize ceromony´s!!! I am not an FEI judge.
The show was of very good quality I know becuase I was there.
I did a good job showing Dun it With Charm and Dun it With Charm did a good job representing SWEDEN!!!!!
The important thing is that Sweden was represented in this compition and had success not that a miscomunication caused me to enter the arena without a horse.
In the end I would like to say that someone saying things like this about anyone else should sign their name.
