Not sure if you remember the post of this little mare that i got from the rescue centre after she was found going for meat.
Well she is an absolute gem and a very smart horse but i feel we have a really good bond after 8 weeks. We have had plenty of outings at lessons etc and is so cool, calm and collected you would hardly think she is only 4.
Today we went xc schooling for the first and she was super, not once did she say no i cant, always im not so sure but i'll try.
All the baby things we did and also popped the ditch and trotted in and out and also jumped in and out of the water complex, very mature!
In the end we strung together the ditch bounce to a tyre jump, tot in the water and pop out to two little logs and all very relaxed and collected. I couldnt of asked more!

Sorry all huge pbucket playing up, wine to all
 
I *think* I saw you today at tyrella - where the black lab came over to you and sniffed your horse?

(I was on the massive coloured horse who was feeling rather well!)
 
Thought you had stolen my horse for a minute then! Your mare looks a lot like mine but fitter with smaller ears :p my girl is also 4 (rising 5) and I hope to be doing this with her soon :)
 
Yes well done all it is moira, i love it there for babies as many options and cant wait for tyrella comps to start to school the next day.
Unfortunately wasnt me as just hacking at home today, but please if you see me do say hello
