Wilma's First British Eventing Debut! 🎉 Solihull Riding Centre - Can We Qualify for Regionals?
Welcome back to another exciting eventing vlog, and this one is extra special! Today, Wilma is taking on her first-ever affiliated British Eventing event at the beautiful Solihull Riding Centre. 🌟 For those of you who have been following our journey, you’ll know that Wilma has previously only competed in unaffiliated Cotswold Cup events, so this is a big step up for her.
Solihull is a fantastic venue, but it’s also known for its challenging and full-up tracks, so we certainly had our work cut out for us. To add to the excitement, I set a rather ambitious goal for the day—to see if Wilma could qualify for the regional championships in September with just one BE event 🙈
Tune in to see how we fare against the competition, the ups and downs of the day, and whether Wilma can pull off a surprising qualification. It’s a day full of learning, excitement, and some nail-biting moments.
