How do you scratch and get your money back? They never allow me to get a refund
If you withdraw by closing date you get your money - an office fee back. Also as there is always a massive wait list for Richland you typically can scratch after closing date and get your money back since they can fill your spot. Each event will say in the omnibus what their refund policy is.
I love how people are attempting to tell you what your horses are capable of without even knowing your horses. They can all stuff it and get over themselves. You're going to have a great time at Richland with your boys! Good luck! ♥
Thank you love 💙💚 I'm not too proud that if things don't go according to plan I don't mind bumping down a level (Donnie) or scratching (Oscar) if the situation calls for it. Thank you for your kindness!!
It's not the fact that you're doing novice with Oscar.. It's that it's Richland? How many events has he done?
Have you done the Richland novice? It's honestly a great track. I know which parts would be a problem area for him and him experiencing the atmosphere would be super beneficial for him. If he's not ready I'll scratch and get my money back. If you're genuinely concerned rather than just being rude you can shoot me an email and come off anon, email is listed in my bio. 😘
Do you think that it is dumb for a 23 year old rider, who is just now getting ready to move up to intermediate, to consider doing the horse thing professionally?
Not at all! Never give up on your dreams! If you think you can make a living at it then give it a try! It never hurts to try!
Not sure how people are giving you hate on Oscar when so many people do one beginner novice and then move up, or just go straight to novice.
I don't understand any of the stuff I'm getting on either of the boys for Richland. What you said is spot on. Plus it always has a wait list so I can scratch Oscar and get my money back if it's questionable then I can always drop Donnie down if needed. It's really not a big deal. People need to grow up and stay in their lane
