So I have been offered the ride while I am horseless of a lovely 5yr old warmblood who's owner has decided to stop riding now she is in her 3rd trimester, I am not worried about physically being able to ride the horse, he doesn't seem complicated or overly sharp. I am more worried about if I can do such a young horse justice! I have ridden youngsters, taught them LY,SI,TOTFH, RB. But they were all irish hunter types who needed those exercises in routine to keep them supple and able to work round and forward. I haven't ever competitively ridden above novice dressage, and only UA jumping. This horse is being aimed to event, which I haven't competed at ever. I am slightly concerned I am going to get on this lovely warmblood who finds everything so easy, and ruin him!
Does anyone else get this? I think I'd be missing out on an amazing opportunity to improve, and I do have an instructor who I use who was fantastic with my old mare, so I would have support, but I can only afford 1 lesson a month! Thats a lot of riding on my own!
