I also can't believe that I am being organised enough that I have already written my show list.
So I decided to share with you guys who will be coming, with so many newbies joining me since the last live show I've got quite a show string attending!
It's probably worth explaining how I choose which horses to take. Needless to say I have a very fine tuned method that resolves around two spreadsheets (life without spreadsheets just isn't worth living).
I choose horses based on an order system, so here it is!
- All new horses (with the exception of where I have more than allowed for a class, I keep a list and just work down it, horses that don't get to this show should get to the next)
- 2nd Place horses - I keep a list of horses that have placed 2nd or 1st place at a live show. I then divide the list by the number of shows left and choose that many from the list (deleting them once they have been to a show). In this case it was 24 horses
- Champion horses - all horses who have taken champions so far this year get to come (year is counted as 2016/17 BMECS qualifiers onwards)
- Show string - I use a points based system to see who my best horses are, the best 25 get to come
- Random horses - I have lists of every horse filled under breed and finish. 10 horses for each finish get to come. I have devised my list in such a way that I can make a mark (OK underline the box on excel) under the horse that has come, this way everyone gets a chance to occasionally come out
