Ive just taken on a 5 yr old tb that trained but never raced. Starting from scratch with her because shes been out of work 6 mnths ish. Walked her out in hand on the roads yesterday (we have very busy country lanes with every kind of vehicle many of which don't slow down) very on her toes & if things were especially scary (even joggers!) we do high speed reverse (not ideal when theres cars behind but hey!) Wondering if i'm better off leading her with me on foot so I can reassure etc with a traffic proof nag with us or lead her from my mare plus another sensible if poss?! I know this is something that has to be done right from day one so any suggestions are very welcome!!
