I’ll see if I can find you!
You’ll do fine! Have faith in yourself, show up and do your best.
We’ve got your back!
Enjoy your adventures at the show and report back about how it went. 3rd level is nothing to be dismissive about, you should be proud of your accomplishments.
The hopeful goals for 2025 are to get my (then) 5yo out showing a little, probably some combined tests in the spring while we work through our uncertainty about going in water, and hopefully some starter/BN events later in the year. Might aim to qualify for dressage Regionals at Training Level - it’s quite local to us next year, and I think it would give us a good goal and him exposure to a bigger show environment.
Non-show goals include getting him exposed to more trail riding when I can coordinate an experienced buddy to go with, and trying to get more consistent lessons and cross country schooling opportunities. He’s the primary horse now, so next year things get semi-serious
