"Bye!" Matt called. he picked up his cructhes and went to find Sam. Sam went with him, and held onto the refreshments he had. Matt sat right across from the judge and put his camera down, right next to his cell. Sam gave him his food and drinks and went back down to get ready. She went down, and started to groom Tuna really well. She pulled her clean tall boots on and her show shirt, along with her show jacket. She put her number on and made sure her hair was perfect. She Put her Pessoa Saddle on Tuna, and after tacking up, lead him into the Warm-up ring. Allie was next to her, being her trainer. Allie's Sam's trainer, and Sam's Allie's trainer.

Back at the barn, Vicki and Megan were already waiting for her. "Sorry .." she said, going into Sailor's stall and taking off his sheet. She let him out and mounted. Vicki did the same. Megan followed behind. They went to the warm-up ring and walked and trotted. They didn't want to tire out their horses, just loosen them up.

Matt wacthed as the ring crew dragged the arena. His cell rang.. "Hello?" "Matt! Get your ass done to Amigo's Stall! He's out of control!" It was a stablehand at lionshare's, and he has become freind with him. "He's rearing and kicking! he won't let anyone in his stall!" Matt got up and walked there with one cructh, and cell phone in the other. "Were's the rest of are horses?" "A few stalls down. " Matt hanged up and got there.. Amigo listened to people talking in french, since he was born and lived in france til he was 4. Matt got to his stall and said "Amigo arrĂȘtent et position" (ooc: Amigo stop and Stand). Amigo stoped rearing and went over to him. Matt told the stablehand. Put him in Tuna's Stall. So then he'll be near Dream.He'll be fine from now on."The stable hand nodded and Matt went back to the warm up ring. Sam and Allie where waiting for Danny to take Tuna. Matt met up with them and they started walking the course. There corgie, Max, ran along with them. Matt helped them figaring out Amigo's Stride's.

Summer extened Sailor's trot then colleceted him; then walked. Vicki did the same. "That should be good!!" Megan shouted. Vicki and Summer nodded and walked out to the horse and rider viewing area. Megan made her way up to the people only viewing area and sat down with her parents and the grooms.

Matt walked with Allie and Sam.. trying to figaure out the course. "ohh.. so it's the combonation and then the single.." Sam said. "Yes. That'll be a good 7 strides inbetween." It was a half hour.. and they still had to finish up with Amigo stride list. Matt looked at his cell and said "I'll be at my seat. Across from the judge's." They nodded. Matt walked back up to the stands and sat there.

Summer and Vicki pointed at the course, figuring out their routes. "It's the in and out to the veritcal, roll back to the swedish oxer, then a bent line to the 3 stride .." Summer said. Vicki nodded. The girls went over the course in their mind about 20 times. The two worst things you can do in an Equitation class are have a rail or forget where you're going. And the Breen girls deffinetley wouldn't to either. Summer patted Sailor as he stood so perfectly. Vicki spotted her mom and dad and waved. Summer saw Matt and waved to him.

ooc: 6 in the morning?!
Summer smiled. She couldn't wait for it to start. She had been training her whole life for this one show. Vicki was sad though; it was her last year as a Junior Rider; her last Maclays.

OOC: Yup. It started 6 in the morning, and all the jumping ended about noon. then they had 2 flat classes.
Allie breathed in the air.. This is the last time.. the last time she can show here.. Well in the Maclays.. After this.. she's not a Jr.. She's a Sr... Sam looked around.. She's been here only 3 times.. and havn't been even close to winning. Matt looked around.. at Sam, Viki, Allie, and Summer. They looked like they where taking it all in..
"Welcome to the 2006 ASPCA Maclay! The first ten rider's are....................... Sam Richardson, blah blah blah blah. Please get your horses ready and get out here." Matt got his camera, and made sure he had enough film.

Sam looked back and smiled. Allie went over all the stuff before her entering. All the practicing.. came up to this one moment.. Sam went in and got her canter. She went smoothly over every fence.. making sure everything george morris would say about her.. was perfect. She gave Tuna an Automatic release, which show's off a good performance. After the last fence, she did her ending circle. Matt got picture's of every moment.

Sam's smiled was a mile wide. She patted Tuna, and then gave him a hug. Matt got some picture's of her. and then a few of the judge's expression. He laughed at George Morris's expression. His mouth was dropped open. He looked at the other judge's and said one word. He could see it.. this is the one word he knew by heart Perfect.

ooc: awww hes such a nice brother. lets skip ahead a few peeps and Summer is gonna go .. okay?
Summer patted Sailor. "Alright boy .. here we go" she said walking him into the ring. She did her curtousey circle at the canter and did her first fence; perfect. As was the rest of the course. A little long at some jumps, but her position stayed the same over every one. They did their closing circle and exited the ring. Summer patted Sailor and walked him in the warm-up ring to cool him down.
