Just passing through...
I hacked Dizz out today, with Friend who was on BC. It was meant to be mellow and chilled...
Let's just say that I think the Dizz is feeling rather fine!
In other words... ...Stroppy argumentative c*wbag!!!! Argued and stropped and if I dared to take up the contact, well, the world was coming to an end
. Wasn't too bothered until she kicked off just at the start of the bridge over the M1 . Normally goes over there no problem at all. Today I thought I was going to go over - the parapet!
I am ridiculously proud of myself
. I stayed on top and regained some semblance of control . I didn't turn round and go home (though that thought not so much crossed my mind as tried to make camp).
She argued and stopped all the way. I tried a loose reing (Whoa!), asking her to work, tried my hands in different places, lightened my seat, deepend my seat, all to no avail
.
Got back to the yard and took her in the school. At this point she is still very, very forward going. Asked her to work. She suggested I go and boil my head. I took several deep breaths, droppd the reins 'till I was on the buckle, and just walked round in circles for a wee while. She stretched down very long and low, which is unusual for her. I slowly took up the contact again, asked her to work, and she was brill! Soft and flexing and a joy to ride .
Am thinking that maybe (just maybe) she tweaked something, hence the long and low and being better afterwards. Giving her the benefit of the doubt lol.
As a point though, I am cutting out the Pessoa work for a while, just while her brain cell (and I!) catch up with her fitness
Ah, horses
