I've started longlining the coblet who has taken to it like he's been doing it all his life. Happy to go round the village at any pace, could do with a bit more patience standing at junctions but nothing silly.
My working theory is he was a gypsy/traveller horse before being dumped in a field and going through Blue Cross, and I feel like he'd make a good driving chap.
However, I am a complete novice with driving (don't know anything about it really) and would not want to start him off in the wrong way. Can anyone recommend somewhere to potentially send him to for training (and me too)? Would have to be Oxfordshire or surrounding counties. I've been watching some of Barry Hook's videos online who seems a good trainer but any other thoughts would be gratefully received.
