In order to be fair to all members we request that you try to keep photos to a minimum of 1-2 per post.

Exciting dressage result

I was looking for results of last weekend's Berrima Horse Trials competition. They're not yet posted but I did find some nice photos of Matt Anderson Cross-country jumping on Sandro (Bloomsbury's Mai Ssandro)..which I'll post when I can obtain them.

During my search I found detailed scores for the Berrima competition of 29 November 2010. I knew Matthew had come 6th out of 22 in that Prelim class; what I didn't know was that he scored 73.18% in the dressage, to be coming equal 2nd after the first phase.
That's REALLY exciting!
They had a few time penalties x-c and a rail on S-J, to finish 6th overall.

Looks to be a partnership with potential!

Update: Wednesday April 14. Results just posted for Berrima April 2011.
Matt and Sandro came 7th out of 31 riders in the Prelim B class! Well done, boys!
