The white gelding leaned heavily on the reins. James had a hard time settling him on his hindquarters - and so they ended up a bit too close to the last obstacle. Francis hesitated for a second, but in the last moment jumped and cleared the small fence with surprising athleticism.
8 obstacles in a line - a hard exercise for them. Francis certainly had the power, but he had a long stride and didn't like collection very much.
James recollected the reins as the gelding continued to canter alongside the fence.

"Nice Save." His father's voice sounded unimpressed, hard, as always.
"Thanks," was everything that the young man could utter as he slowed his horse down to a trot. His words were dripping sarcasm - of course he knew whose mistake it had been - but Peter wasn't in the mood for jokes.
"I WAS SPEAKING OF THE HORSE," he bellowed, not caring for the other participants of the clinic that were well within earshot of father and son. "Again, and no sleeping this time!" 

James' mouth was a thin line and his hands were harsh as he pulled his horse around and urged him towards the grid once more.

A little snippet of what the upcoming storyline will bring for these two gentlemen! Don't worry, Peter won't treat your riders like that. He has a love-hate-relationship with his kids - and he ignores James most of the time anyway. :/ 

Nyaahhh -- I have NO TIME, so this is seriously rushed :'D I would've liked to include some of you lovely people who have already entered the Clinic, but alas! I have 4 minutes of animation to tackle until the end of February, and I should invest 842% of my time for that. Will post a journal about this in a minute. (:
