Managed to get a photo of Bailey yesterday [after our lesson, not during unfortunately].
He had about a month off of ridden work, just to give him a break, and has been back in work again for nearly a month now. He feels a lot stronger for the break, his transitions have a lot of power and are nice and smooth. He is also feeling cheeky enough to try and get out of doing the work or to show me I have obviously been doing it wrong and this is how it should be done [normally involved going fast and ignoring me!]
I think he is looking really well, he is at a good weight, his muscle is building on his neck and over his back now too, although this is a work in progress. I'm very pleased with how he is, and just wanted the thoughts of others
CC if you like; I appreciate the photo isn't brilliant as he was on the flatest part of a slope I could find and he isn't standing square [he is stepping forward a bit too].
Thanks
