I'm so happy with him, love him so much! After feeling triumphant yesterday as had first canter on him out hacking was feeling a bit more confident about beach today.
Was a really lovely day, arrived at beach at lunchtime and had picnic then tacked horses up (went with another lady and her horse) G's owner rode him first and she had a few gallops on him and he looked like he was loving it! Bless him.
Then came my turn, i was slightly nervous as owner did say that he was a bit hyper, got on and walked him up the beach, he was really forward (which makes a change from ploddy cob
) and then started to trot, lol he was going as fast as his little legs would carry him bless. I then felt confident after a while to ask for a canter and he gave me a really lovely, energetic canter up the beach, it was brilliant. Then i had to turn round and go back, i was a bit anxious as THOUGHT he may want to gallop back to others etc so thought i'd just go slowly, only walk and trot.
Err as soon as i turned him round that was it lol, literally just WENT full pelt with me down the beach back to them, i have never galloped before ever and was S**TTING myself at first lol, everyone could probably hear me going 'f**k oh f**k' lol then after a while i thought actually this is quite fun i'll let him carry on
So i did and had time of my life, seriously, i couldnt breathe cos i was laughing so hard and the water and sand were splashing in my face lmao. I was so elated
Then owner got back on and had another ride and then i got back on and she said if i rode in a circle around her she'd film me so here's one of me and him cantering around lol.
