First bi

Deuce went to his first show on the 17th! he was pretty distracted and excited thursday and friday, but steph helped me at the show. i had to keep his mind on the work so he wouldn't pay so much attention to the surrounding commotion. he did okay on his first day. he got a decent 57.7 at first level 2 and a 61 at training level. i really had to ride him because he was being kind of fidgety and opinionated. on sunday i took him out in the pouring rain. he was super fussy in the warmup and was kind of being a jerk. he was tired, didnt want to work, and was ready to go home. i took him into the arena but as i passed the judges trailer he spooked and bucked me off. he bolted and left me in the dust!
First i was pretty upset and sad and just thought maybe he's too young to show.
