Just been looking round for a new horse to see if anything stands out and came across one which i like the look/sound of. Apart from being the same age and breed as Speedy it sounds completly different riding wise. Anyway just a wee question please :D Do you think this horse sounds difficult? Or more so describing an inexperienced rider with unsteady hands/seat?

"He's forward going and needs an experienced rider, he's not hot but wouldn't appreciate someone with heavy hands and no balance. He goes beatifully when you just sit quiet."

Now i know if you made a sudden jerk or snatch at Speedys mouth he wasnt a happy bunny and would retaliate with ears in your face but nothing naughty so to speak!! Not that i jabbed at his mouth though, it was just if you turned suddenly like dodging something, more like a sudden movement lol i would like to think i have still hands :p ... Woooo sorry that got a bit long :eek:
 
Some horses are just like that. I decided to give a lesson to a friends daughter and even though she hadnt ridden before she did really well and sat quietly and my horse didnt bat an eyelid. My nephew on the other hand was bouncing about alot and had his hands round his ears, and after about 5 minutes my mare decided enough was enough, and I dont blame her! Decided not to give lessons to any relatives or friends offspring anymore!
