Feeling a bit sorry for myself today. Had a horsey shopping trip on Sunday to see 4 horses - a fair distance from me but all quite close to each other (in the greater scheme of things) 1 and 2 truly were bombproof. I'm not sure even a bomb would have got them going. 3 was very nice but way smaller than the 16.2 he was supposed to be. I suspected he was so asked for a photo with a stick and it said 16.2 but it must have been in a hole! 4 was stunning, perfect size, beautiful looking, incredible mover. I lasted 10 seconds before he bucked me off. I now have a pulled hamstring, whiplash, shredded confidence and I seem to have exhausted the market at the moment. There's nothing out there I think would be better than the ones I've seen so far. The truth is I don't want to be horse shopping. I want Archie sound and Monty young enough to cope with the workload of me and his owner's son riding him but I can't have that. Anyone got a time machine?
