I picked up Sky a week ago today .
I have been working him twice most days and he’s beginning to knuckle down and get on with life the way I want him too .
The hacking has improved a lot as has the behaviour in traffic although I would not go out alone atm
In the school I have been lunging working to getting him to stretch down this has come on well and will help him to develop the strength in his back and core that he lacks atm .
His lateral bend has also improved so all going in the right direction there .
On Saturday we hacked out them I took him in the school with H alongside obviously he was a little miffed as he thought he was heading to his stable for a snack and sleep so he treated us to some of the naughty spooking that his previous owner disliked so much , I just gave him want for he was shocked but took it well and behaved the moment he settled I took him out .
Today he’s been away to jump with Craig who helps me with my jumping on board apart from landing disunited twice it would have been hard for him to go better . Settled immediately jumped beautifully no spooking good result .
Next week we have a dressage clinic and a pole clinic and I will try to get him to Craig for a jump then the next step is the big one Hunting .
He’s a lovely horse to care for very sweet , my heart is still with Harvey but I am warming to him .
