I mentioned the show at Rocking Horse in my last post and I'm very excited! We, (as in the barn) are going on the 29th all doing tadpole. My sister is going on a pony named Princess, we are moving toward selling her for around 5k-7k and looking into buying more projects for cheap. I'm going on Spy of course, she has more experience than the other horses and I have more experience than the other riders as well so that's one less thing for my instructor to worry about. Some old boarders that have their own place now are the others that are coming. It's their first real 3-phase so I'm hoping their experience will be good. (I need to not be competitive this time. My sister and I are always aiming to win. Who isn't?)
Anywho, just wanted to update everyone on that. Spy and I are doing fantastic lately, I've been trying to work on running for long distances and getting her back into that after our long break, linementing her legs after every hard workout to keep her out of the way of hurting herself. I'm trying to condition her the best I can before this event, hopefully she won't be so overdone after this one. I'm not sure what happened last time. Anyways So with about 3 weeks to practice for the big show we will be doing plenty of jumping and running, flat work to give her breaks, and for me a lot of hardcore focusing.
Again no pictures, maybe next time. ;)
Wish us luck!
