I'm a hobby rider, had a couple of just backed 4 year olds before (one small Irish type and one old fashioned warmblood type). Then i bought a 17 month old Hanoverian with nearly 70% tb blood. Probably completely overhorsed myself and my now 9 year old has masses more talent than I'll ever have, but she's my horse of a lifetime and I adore her. I took it tortoise slow and we've had a couple of blips but nothing insurmountable. I will remember the day i backed her forever and every little special moment we have achieved. Would i do it again, yep.....although wish I was 20 years younger!
