Thanks skychick!

Eep, the gallop but freaked me out! It was only 3/4 strides tho, and he had a lovely soft mouth, so settled back into canter really easily

aww sounds like you had a great time
bet you had a great time cantering...dont they let you do it at RS? we did it all the time...should have let him gallop it so much fun going fast he would have stopped even my very stong pony stops eventually hehe

Erm, we dont exactly have decent hacking at my RS! We are in North London...

Galloping for three strides was scary!

I was in Ireland visiting my friend working at a yard there Monday-Thursday, I was near sligo as well! strange coincidences.

What a cowinkydink!

Isnt Sligo just gorgeous?! I have never seen so much hacking!!

(Poor london rider )

 

[wilsha]

aww thats a shame you dont have good hacking that was my fave bit about RS cantering up the hill lol
surely there are paddocks that you can canter in?
