Backed our homebred youngster today

[windand rain]

I was a complete non event thank god. She is a bit strong but learned very quickly to go forward with a rider I expect she will have her moments but so far so good
She has had minimal handling all her life has worn tack about half a dozen times and been long reined a couple of times she is totally bombproof in hand I hope the same applies under saddle

It is wonderful from holding her in my arms and feeding her her first feeds from a bottle as she didnt quite get the nursing bit to seeing her ridden has been a wonderful journey. She had a little trot unintentionally and then we let her go to walk round the field with her rider on her own even went passed her mum and turned away from her rather than following so far so good
