Date Posted: 19:37:35 11/01/02 Fri In reply to: Mal 's message, "Michelle's Lesson!!!" on 19:24:11 11/01/02 Fri When i got to the indoor ring Hannah had Mizzy warmed up and was popping her over some easy crossrails. Then i told her to get cantering around well i set up some jumps. I set up a course of jumps that were 3ft high. I told her to canter a courtesy circle. When she had done that she headed towards the first jump. She took the brush jump easily. Then came the post and rail. Then the plank. All of the first 3 jumps they took easily with room to spare. When she came to the Liver pool which was the fourth jump. they landed with one hoof in the water. Four faults i thought. She obviously noticed her mistake cause she made up for it with the jumps to come. She cantered easily through the in and out then the bounce. Then came one more plank jump and then she was done. "Do you know what you did wrong? i asked her. "Yeah. I didnt give her enough leg over the liver pool. That is why she stepped in it." "Good. You realized your mistake and made up for it going over the rest of the course. Now could you dismount and let Allison walk her out?" "Yeah sure." I waved to Ally from where she was sitting in her wheelchair and i told her to come over. She came over and i handed her Mizzy's reins and told her to walk her out. She was over joyed to walk out Mizzy. Hannah walked along beside and helped Ally. Then they went off together and untacked and turned her out in her pasture. Then i went to talk to Saddle. After about 10 minutes i said bye and loaded up my horses and drove back to WS. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
