We have just taken four ponies down the estate as a four in hand for the very first time. I am pleased to report that nobody died, though there was some serious wonkiness, due to driver looking at her hands, rather than keeping an eye on all of the horses whilst adjusting the reins. A very sensitive leader kept over-reacting to me trying to straighten the wheelers, and I'm so used to driving two that I didn't notice right away.
Ponies were very patient, as were the grooms, though at times all were pretty confused. Kudos to anyone out there who can make driving four look easy. It most certainly isn't!
