So, Breitlingh first.
Went to the regionals in February, lots of "oooooee" and "aaaaaaah" horses and semi professionals. Little Breitlingh worked her heart out for me. She was a bit spooky in the main arena, mirrors were everywhere. Breitlingh likes to check herself out in the mirror, so it was a bit of a struggle in the begin. Still very pleased with the test. We got 61% off both judges, fair percentage for the regionals. We ended up 15th out of 25.
On the 2nd of March we rode L2 for the first time, just for a try, did not expect anything, as it has some counter canter in it and Breitlingh's canter is still very big and long. Got a whopping 65% and 68%! Wow!
But now Breitlingh is lame. Mystery lameness. Getting better everyday though... so taking it easy.
A few pics of Breitlingh in the woods earlier this month!
And now for Four!
He has been amazing so far! Getting better and better everytime I ride him. Hormones are fully flowing, but he behaves himself very will. Pleased with the wild, dangerous stallion.
My instructor came to do some lunge work with him, bless him, he tried his heart out!
Hopped on his back while brushing!
And thats it really....
