Can't keep it in....

Having ridden for nearly 20yrs... and had only 1 lesson (not on my horse) in my life.... I am proud of myself... but more so my LOVELY pony.

We had our first ever lesson yesterday with Sally2008 - it was Jags (ex racer) first ever lesson too!! .... and he tried his hardest for the RDA rider (me) on top... LOL!!

He was bending and stretching lovely, was tracking up AND was elevating himself beautifully in trot. (Or so Sally said, infact she said "OMG that trot is to die for" - maybe she was being kind HOWEVER I did feel like I was floating at times!!

I'm so proud of my boy.

Aw don't say that, especially an ex racer, you must have put in a load of hard work with him and they always seem to be so grateful! Just the fact that he did so well for you is a sure sign that he lurves you, and well done for taking on the challenge.

Please don't feel like that hun. Am sure he's not. Am guessing he's the bay in your sig?. Looks a total sweetie and happy.

Yup my gorgeous bay man... he is a complete sweetie, the kindest gentlest horse ever, with great personality.
