Roman wasn't quite with me in the run-in test for the final of the Louisdor Prize.
My brilliant First Romance was a bit overzealous today in the Young Horse Grand Prix and had his own ideas, which unfortunately cost us an incredible amount of points. Roman started the test with a strong trot tour and was also quite relaxed in the walk. Then in the strong canter he built in a little bounce and also in the series changes he was a bit ahead of the task and didn't wait for my help. Too bad! Roman has such a great basic quality, but he still has to learn to listen better to my aids and to have his power under control.
Tomorrow is a new day and I really hope that we will manage a faultless test then.
