Well I rode the black QH mare today. It was probably the best ride I've ever had on her. It's the first time that she didn't take off on me, or spook at one of the dogs or at nothing at all. My legs are shot though, because it takes loads more effort to keep them under me on her then it does on anyone else I've ridden. She goes in a snaffle, but she pulls right through it, and LOVES to lean on my hands big time, because she feels that I need to hold her up. It's like holding up a cinder block, and my arms are killing me. It's going to be an early night for me!
I kind of think I understand the part about holding her up:') Glad you had a good ride. I'm going riding in the morning. I'm managing two times a week. My trainer wants 3-4 but I'm doing the best I can right now. She did tell me last week that I'm going to be a great rider. We'll see but it made me feel good.
