I think he’ll need 16.5 to start. He’s quite little. But I’ll put Myka’s 17 on him to a check length and if 17 seems ok come back to you x

We’ll I’ve injured my ribs and discovered riding today that any pressure down the rein is painful. So I focused on staying soft and light through transitions, circles and serpentines. She gave me lovely work on the right rein but leans more on the left where she’s less balanced. I need to get...

Thanks I’ll have a look x

Ah, that’s a pity because that will be too long for him at the moment. X

I have sold saddles and courier services are pretty good. You just need a big enough box! I'd be very interesed in it if it's the right sort of length.

Well I am looking for a saddle for Mylo if anyone is selling cheap. A gp to back him in. It just needs to fit and I'll decide on a posh saddle at a later date! So something adjustable for a horse currently about 15.2 and fairly weedy still at 2 1/2.

Hope you’re ok LG!

Yes I think the key is being able to adjust without rein aids. I’ve been practicing with that in walk and trot. On the right rein she stays quite soft and consistent on a super light rein, on the left she leans on the bit. She’s a lot less balanced on the left so I presume as that improves she...

Thanks everyone for reassuring replies! I guess we all do daft things sometimes. X

The bridle is great. I got a Sabre bridle in the end. It’s very nice and seems to fit well.

Myka was great to ride today. Soft, light, swinging. Then I decided to try her new bridle on after we had finished. (I need to treat it before I ride in it so I rode first then fitted it). She was near a wall but she's polite so I took that for granted and was in an unsafe position between her...

I’ve tried 2 TBs, as my original thought was to add blood. I used Revolution and Ansiei. Several times each. Amber never caught but it’s definitely an option

Ooh that's a good offer! Day out drooling over Amber's future paramour!

Silverster looks awesome. I would not really want a grey but's it's only 50:50 and if I place him/her with a rider then they are the ones getting show ready :D

I have. He has explained why he rides as he does. And some of what he views as the potential problems with leg into hand. He and Sophie were very well aligned though and he accepts that done as a route to self carriage it is fine. But does not think many riders do that, but ride with a strong...
