The schooling went really well, in particular Dancer and Jake. Harry was a little too enthusiastic and rushed his fences with his head in the air, but hopefully he will be better in the race when they are going that bit quicker. He is rather accident prone so we have just got to hope he concentrates on what he is doing and jumps a clear round.
We had the We Never Give Up club in yesterday morning to watch their three girls school - Intimate Whisper, View the Dance and We Never Give Up (Jess) all of which schooled brilliantly. The soft ground may find Dancer's fitness out as she hasn't been in training for as long as the other two as she has been hunting but the race will bring her on. We will be leaving at the crack of dawn tomorrow so the three horses have been bathed and are wrapped up in duvets at the moment to keep them warm as it is incredibly windy today. Fingers crossed they all come home safely.
