 Hello everyone

Now i know Festy and i have been selected for WEG but a big thank you and congratulations must go to all my wonderful sponsors and supporters.. 

Raise your glasses... a toast..."To all my supporters and sponsors, THANK YOU as without all of you supporting me like you do i wouldn’t be able to do what i do like i do it!!!!!! (that’s just a bit of excited Meganese for you)
 
So i go the call late Tuesday night from chairman of selectors Seamus Marwood telling me i had made it onto the Australian WEG team of 6. After the vet check at the Worlds the 6 will be divided into 4 riding as the Australian Team and 2 as individuals.  So i’m hoping my form in camp will see me in the Team of 4.
 
We were at the Sydney CCI*** event last week as it was our final selection “trial/fitness test”. I rode Floyd in the actual CCI*** class where he was very good and placed 3rd . Festy just did the special WEG class he was very good and felt super super fit, in fact he was kind of Feisty Festy!!!
 
Kate and i are now staying up at SIEC until camp starts next Wednesday and we fly out on September 13th.
It is very nice up here warm and sunny and even when it rains it is still humid and warm so much nicer than sideways hail and single digit temperatures we are having at home at the moment so i’m told. A big thank you to Nicole, Ally and Mummy for looking after the fort while Kate and i are up here preparing.
 
I will keep you all up to date if anything exciting happens.
 
Thank you all again for being such a great team behind me.
 
Megan and Feisty Festy

Better late than never... Both Floyd and Jester passed the final vet check this morning. Floyd is currently 5th in the CCI and no scores are being issued for the WEG 'competition' as its not official and has been constructed by the Selectors to give them the last look at combinations before the WEG squad is announced in a few days time.

You can see some commentary and scores here. Some video of Jester's dressage test here (second half of the clip. A few pics here.

UPDATE - Floyd third in the CCI. Congratulations to Heath on a great win!
