Addie update including far too many photos.!

[piaffe]

I have now ridden Addie 5 times since she came back. Sadly, I have been working loads this week so just haven't been able to ride her as much as I would like.

Im really enjoying riding her and she seems to be going well. The only issue I have so far is bit leaning!

Obviously she is very mouthy still but has decided to lean on the bit which is hard going! She is currently is a simply eggbutt snaffle (happy mouth) and have just ordered a loose ring happy mouth snaffle with peanut so hopefully that should help.

Im also finding my unfitness a huge issue and also my weak position isn't helping matter as I keep collapsing my upper body as don't seem to be fit enough and strong enough to maintain it.

So here are some photos, in no particular order. Please don'tbe too critical.

Cooling down-

She's gorgeous!

I've had the same problem bit wise and the one you've ordered should do the trick.

Practice makes perfect, and you will both get stronger and fitter as you go on

She looks lovely, must come meet her 9and you) soon!

She looks fab! Just do lots of transitions and keep her thinking with changes of pace and direction, she will soon begin to hold herself together.
