RC lesson

Max & Dan - oh my, they were both absolute stars!

Dan is now a dual purpose pone, he is P's eventer-in-making and also Mum's happy hacker when she rides with C and Aero. Clever pone!

I think the idea of dressage in the rain and cold made a lesson under cover on a sunny evening a walk in the park. Dan went like I've never seen him - a proper dressage pone.

Max was round and soft most of the time, and bent both ways AND did lots of cantering around on a big circle both ways, and softened and stretched his neck down with soft ears both ways, hurrah! And we got the right leg every time. Truly amazing. He tried soooo hard and was very obedient and willing. I do really like him, why couldn't he be a hand smaller??!

Poor lad has combined training on Thurs, another solo party, and then either he or Magic are going SJing with Dan on Sunday.... haven't decided which yet!

Then Max gets nearly a week off whilst Magic and I go on our hols!! Yey!

Am definately erring towards jumpies fhoenix for everything at the moment... seems to be working pretty well.
