Well your herd sounds to be in good shape, especially pony if she can do that:)
I just came in from riding Harley. We did better today then the last time. He just moves so differnt from Rusty, and he so much more senstive to cues I'm having to concuisouly remember not to over cue. But we're getting there. The long shank snaffle seems to be working better then the others I've tried too.

She just sprang. She was standing pretty quiet, and he caught her off guard. He stuck the needle in her, and she coiled and leaped into the air and landed about 10 feet in front of me. Then she stood there, trembling.. the needle still in her. Even with the leap, she was better than Bay, who wouldn't stop.
Glad your ride went good. Is it your hands or your leg or both that you have to scale back on?
