We did a quick trial this morning - just two runs. It was close to my house so I couldn't resist.
The first run was kind of a wash. It had stormed last night and was still raining during the run. The grass was very slick. I think we had a refusal and a knocked bar when I couldn't get far enough ahead to execute a cross properly.
The second run was also kind of a mess, but we Q'd. It was an Adv Gamblers run - our third - so we're now able to enter masters gamblers! It's our first time breaking out of advanced. I'm not surprised it was gamblers though - no set course, lots of focus on distance, just run and have some fun - it's definitely our game.
Cohen continues to impress me with her ability to keep bars up these days. She's not perfect, but she's working hard.
