Peter finally set out to warm up only to notice something happening by the arena. He hung back but looked over curiously.

She looked at Trouble so counfsued but decided to do her test anyway, she mounted back and headed to go wait for her turn.

Peter was relieved to see the rider remount and keep going. He hoped everything was alright. He rode into the warm up arena, keeping to a walk because he was worried trotting might jolt his arm too much. It would be devastating to have to bow out at this point.

She heard her name called and she did a flowy trot to the middle of the arena, she saluted and waited for the bell. The bell rung and she did a working trot to H and felt Trouble tense up again. "Ooo no bud no again" she tried to pat him but he already halted.

Peter stroked Sapphire. Fortunately she wasn't the sort to take advantage of him being below par. He had been warned against mares at times but he really couldn't have asked for a better mount.

He looked over to the dressage arena, wondering if the girl who'd helped him would get the win she wanted. He was pretty glad they weren't direct rivals after all.

"No boy please not here" she wrapped her arms around him as he reared, hit the ground, and rolled over. She rolled out of the way before getting crushed. She stood up, winced and tried not to look at everyone staring at her as Trouble galloped away, reins flying. "LOOSE HORSE" people shoved eachother to get out of the stallion's way as he ran fro the stabling area.

Peter gasped in horror as the horse reared and went over backwards. He was certainly glad to see them both get to their feet although the girl did seem to be in pain. He was kinda worried but the loose reins were a hazard that might bring the horse down again, as well as the risk to the crowd. Wary as he was, Peter rode after Trouble. Perhaps a mare would lure the stallion in, although Sapphire wasn't in heat right now.

She stayed on the arena floor, looking aroud. She saw someone ride after him and she sighed and got on. She walked toward the stable and waiting for her horse.

Peter rode wide, not wanting to get close behind the agitated horse. He put a lot of trust in Sapphire as his good hand released her reins so he could attempt getting hold of Trouble's. Peter's heart pounded but he tried his utmost to sound calm as he spoke. "Whoa boy, steady now"

Troubel slowed and stood still as he started at Peter and his kindness. He snorted and started to graze.
