I have had a good few days with Spring and need to share (please indulge me!

I had a lesson with a very talented HHO person on monday (who will remain nameless unless she volunteers). She certainly put us through our paces and despite me riding like a muppet Spring was going nicely by the end. She was soft and light in my hands and we spent time getting her bending and softening. Whilst we both agree that there is a long way to go (mainly re-training me to ride better! Lol!), she felt that Spring could do everything that I wanted her to. It was also nice to see a good rider ride Spring and watch how nicely she can go.

This evening I lunged Springy and to add variety I spent time changing the speed and tempo of her trot, somthing I do regularly. As I asked her to up tempo she gave me about 5 strides of a really super trot showing some extension! It blew me away (I am easily pleased!)

I have toyed with the idea of seling Spring recently for various reasons but until she does something horrible (

Anyway sorry for the self-indulgence!
