Catfish was WONDERFUL at the show!! He trotted around his 18" jumper course so nicely! We took it very easy & just trotted, so had time faults but he jumped so nicely & quietly I was REALLY proud of him! His first dressage he was a bit spooky, first time in a dressage ring, afraid of the white sand footing so he trotted in rather floaty, then he looked at all the letters. The second test he had figured it out and he was much quieter, no more spooking, nice and relaxed ,and we scored 65 and got 4th out of about 10 entries! The judge really liked him; she complimented me on him when I saw her later, calling him a very nice prospect and commenting on how quickly he figured thing out between the 2 tests. He was fabulous and handled everything just wonderfully. He made many fans. (Barbie 5/11)

Barbie rode Catfish in the 5 mile Misty Morning Hounds Hunter Pace on 5/1/11
