Major Tom ID

Description

Alright, it's been awhile since I've posted a new id. This was taken at my farms most recent schooling show. I know I look horrible. Anywas we had been practicing like crazy for the jumping classes. All was going amazingly well untill the last week before the show...then it was like we couldn't get through the course without something going wrong. Tom slid during one run through causing me to withdraw like crazy and I always started getting scared when we came to the corner in which he had slid. THEN the show arrived and I was thinking of not even entering and just taking photos, but decided to give it a try. The flat classes went horribly because Tom was scared of the new sound system and whenever someone spoke he flipped out thinking the loud voices would hurt him. So we got three 3rds and one 1st place. (The first place was a canter class and I was the only one who was able to stop my horse at the same point I had started him.) Then comes the jumping classes. I went in and relaxed before starting...lets just say I was very proud of him and we did better then we had in weeks. I ended up with three 2nds and one 1st. AND we ended up reserve champs in jumping. He did awesome, unless someone talked...which during one class they started listing the placings and caused us a refusal.

Anywas after that long story...
I thought I would let this be stock also for anyone wanting to use it.
I don't really want to hear about how I look because I know most of my faults and am working on them.

Fun fact about Tom, he was raised and trained by my trainer.
