I finished my barn chores and got out my tack. I got out TC and groomed him. I briddled him and got my helmet. I led him out to the ring. I mounted the huge horses and rode to the rail. I was riding bareback. We walked abit and then tried to trot. It was hard. I did a sitting trot most of the time. I cantered him a bit and then cooled him out. I dismounted him and led him into the barn. I groomed him and gave him a treat. I then got out Courage. I groomed and tacked him up. I walked out to the ring with him. I checked the girth and mounted. We walked a couple of mins, warming up. He was very obeient. We then trotted, a collected trot.
It was almost like he was prancing, but he wasn't. I extended his trot. I got him on the bit and did circles. Next, I cantered him abity before trotting some more. We reversed and cantered some. We then walked. I did some figuire 8's cantering. He got every change. I was so pround of my smart Quarter horse. I gave him a pat and cooled him out. I dismounted him and led him into the barn. I untacked him and groomed him. His mane was getting long so I pulled it. I put him away and worked with Spark some. I then groomed her and took her for a walk. I groomed the rest of my horses and gave Peaches a bath. I then went back up to the house.
