Rocco the Six Bar Rock Star!

On the weekend we attended the Singleton Showjumping Championships. Rain was forecasted but no one wanted to believe the weather forecast as everyone was ready for an action packed weekend of riding. The event was held at the Singleton Showgrounds and on Saturday morning there was also a very lovely farmers market held on the grounds where you could get fresh produce, great coffee and cakes and meet some nice locals. We arrived at about 7:30 in the morning and this gave us plenty of time to get a coffee, set up the float and do the course walk for A grade. There was some pretty stiff competition but Stef and Rocco still managed a 2nd in AM4 with three rounds and an impressive 1st place in six bar. There were 5 rounds with the final heights reaching 135 cm and Rocco and Stef rode it beautifully. Rocco has once again proved himself as a champion in six bar as he did in Coonabarrabran coming 3rd out of 200 riders. Sunday night we had a fun evening with friends at the camp but in the evening it started raining and the rain did not stop all night. Trina exceeded all her previous efforts with some excellent cocktails for everyone. I will definately be putting more money in the kitty so she can make more next time! Unfortunately the Sunday showjumping was cancelled as the ground was slippery and unsafe but Stef still managed a 4th overall in A grade.
