I had looked for a sharer for my horse but not found anyone suitable so gave up. I now have a girl from my yard, who is perfect who rides for me after school and at weekends (or whenever I can't get there). She hacks him out, works on the flat and does occassional jumps with him (but only jumping in her lessons). She is calm and exactly what I would have liked to find from a paying sharer.
However my YO has just called me saying there is a new lady at the yard who is interested in sharing. I am going to watch her ride in her lesson out of curiosity at the weekend. But am not sure what to do?? Do I risk taking on a sharer and her not being as good as the person I have riding him for free. Is it basically worth taking this risk or should I stay how I am/???? Am not desperate for the money, although it would help. I somehow feel I am more in control of the situation with the girl I have now and may loose that once someone starts paying. Also really don't want to let this girl down after she has helped me out so much.
