.............how do you ask a person if you could take their horse away on loan? the same thing as the answers on the below post?

I have been riding Frankie for about 8 months now - we have our ups and downs but he is a genuine horse and I love him very much. The owner said she would be more than happy for me to ride him as long as I want to, and loves it how as well as ride him I also care for him. (Other riders always dropped him after a few months, and just turned up rode, didn't muck out trim him or anything. That's fine but I'm not busy and like the caring side too

I love riding him but I want to move back to Cornwall.........it's where I come from and all my friends and family are down there. I have been applying for jobs but it is difficult - for a start there are hardly any and it's difficult for me to go to interviews.

I did go for a job in Bournemouth months and months ago, at a dressage yard, and the people at the yard said I could take Frankie. When I mentioned it to his owner she said I could take him, and when I didn't get the job I asked if I had another opportunity like it could I take Frankie. She said 'yes, you know, as long as it's not too far'. Cornwall is about 180 miles away, and a 3 and a half hour journey

If I was to get a job down there, what could I say to Frankie's owner? If anything? IYO should I just leave it be?

She has other horses, but has had Frankie since he was a baby. (He's now 8). She doesn't ride, and she said herself if I didn't ride him he would be stuck in the field doing nothing.

I'm talking months down the line here, so at the end of it I could have been riding him a year before I even get a job down there.

Or am I living in fairyland?!

I very nearly have........last night I was looking in his stable and his owner's 'man friend'

said 'one day we won't find him in his stable, he'll be on his way down to Cornwall with you'.

I was like 'yes sir!' I am just a very scared person, and am scared about the answer!
