It sounds like the show in Vermont was poles apart from the one in the UK - like the difference between a Big Lick competition and a normal horse show. Seriously - I wish you (Renee), Wanda, Judy, Janice, Karen etc etc could have seen this show and the way the horses reacted. As I said, I like to make up my own mind, just as I did with certain forms of competition riding at the last WC, and I have. I did not see any problem with the UK IceTolt. Period.
