So I've owned three horses, each one unsuitable, bought as a novice ride all three turned out not to be, I've been thrown off umpteen times and to say my nerves are shot is an understatement!! So I have on Saturday a lovely 15'2 coloured Irish cob coming,I've ridden her several times, hacked in company/alone/jumped etc. she's been vet checked and ridden by friends I'm quite confident she is everything I want. My question is where do I start? Do I concentrate on riding straight away? Or grooming and getting to no her. I don't have a ménage so it's difficult to lunge with the ground being so hard. Even though I no she's a lovely mare my nerves are still getting the better of me, any advice will be appreciated
