It doesn't take a genius to use a spellchecker button either

My goodness, have you been asleep, it qualified RIHS last year under same judge, HOYs under same judge, rider and judge even had lunch at last years BSPS champs not to mention the drinks together at HOYs. Just watch the results later, everyone knows what is going to happen.

ok fair point but ther are two judges and if it ws a complete done deal i would have thought she wouldnt have travelled to solihull and west mids first.anyway the pony is beautifully schooled and in a1 condition.

Favours!!!!!!! why does it still go on its so wrong and these people as so desparate they dont have the knowledge or the abillity to do it off there own back. so if you get to RI OR HOYS not on a favour you have won in my eyes. Just look at where they stand in line when they get there, is it worth it? yes because they then sell these animals for vast sums of money to poor unknowledgeable people. that is what has happen to a familys at the moment on 2 counts both are struggling to win at local level!!!!!!!!!!!

YES, I think it's about time people put their money where their mouth is and were brave enough to put what show and what judge. !!!! It would then give people a chance to respond?

Post by dl on Apr 6, 2007 19:41:23 GMT
but "i think" your prediction was that they would win n b champ allbecause the judge placed it 1st last year. i dont know the results but if you were there then you can go and look at the marks. and dont know about cheshire either whats that about another snipe or sour grapes

Actually dl what i think ''prediction" is trying to say is if you look at the results in any class under the same class and competitor she seems to favour her.
Example - Cheshire county - wrong legged it and still went to HOYS (1st placed) and was champion under said judge.

How about this then sports fans i will video it and stick it on utube as then we can all watch as some clever person did it at Olympia . This will help. But i do think said judge is great if your top drinking buddies. If you earn it you deserve it . but like so many so called top riders there only there as there face judged JLC sorted them out at hoys though in 05 we need more people like her not this dead wood stopping new talented riders and great new ponies getting what they have earned

Hello, i can tell people the marks for anyone interested to stop all this bit*hing! The winner was 1 point ahead getting 2 points more for ride (i believe this is the judge you all said wld favour natalie) and 1 less for conformation! And natalies went beautifully (in my opinion as it so often does) so there wld have been no reason for it not to get top going marks!! I can tell you this as i am the rider of the b that won and i cannot tell you how shocked we all are, and how much crying there was!! It was actually my last ride on the pony as he has been sold so all i can say is what a way to go out and lovely as the new owners were there to see him! I have never been under either of these judges had no idea about them and very nearly didnt bother doing it so to go on to win and then be made champion was amazing! Complete and utter shock is my description of it and so to anyone who thinks stuff is a done deal you never can tell, if you dont do it you cant win! And all i can say is if Natalie had won she bloody deserves it anyway as the pony is fab and she does such a great job on it and we would never begrudge her that win. I am sure she is going to go on to have a fantastic and well deserved season with him He went fabulous at the champs so i guess it just comes down to judges and in my case for once someone smiling down on me!!!

Can i say whay a set of nasty jealous bit**es use this site. I am the owner of Mr Cool and i would like to set the record straight here Firstly Mr Cool qualified RIHS last year under Mrs Ruchwaldy as he won and was Champion at Dove Valley on his first outing in open classes. He won and was Champion at most shows last season under many different judges. Yes he won Midland counties and Cheshire under the same judge so what! how many of you find a judge that likes your pony then stays away when they are judging a HOYS qualifier. (GET REAL) NO she did not have lunch with the judge at the BSPS last year she briefly spoke to her in the bar one night along with a dozen other people, and my daughter was with her all the time, so get your facts straight and let me tell you this, you lot will NOT dictate who Natalie can and can not speak to. We are totally home produced family and Natalie has ridden our ponies for many years now Mr Cool was bought for her as a thankyou present for taking over the ride on our Intermediate whilst my daghter had a couple of years off. Natalie is such a lovely girl who gives 110% every show I know for a fact that when she wins she deserves to and belive me there are many times when we do not win when we should, however that is showing and we as most people do try to go under judges that like our ponies. If any of you have the guts to come and say something to our faces i will happily carry on this debate with you but as you are all cowards that will not hap[pen will it. Lastly thankyou to Chloe for coming on here and defending Natalie and well done for Friday very nice pony we were disapointed that we did not win as Mr Cool went beautifully but hey thats showing there is always next week.

In a way i'm glad that "I think" started this post, as they have well and truely been left as the laughing stock by ther "prediction" being false. It just goes to show that you can't predict anything in showing.
I think this thread should be put to bed now, so please no more spiteful comments on the matter or I shall lock it.
(edited to add that "i think" and "mmm" - you shall now have to become members of the site if you wish to air your point of view again!)

i think that everyone on the site should have to be a member, time and time again people go under guest names to take a swipe at other people and their ponies. If you haven't got anything nice to say, dont say anything
