Back in the Saddle Again

At least for Betty.

I can't ride until June at the earliest because of my surgery, but Betty is working again with Morgunn. While she rides him, I have been doing a little ground work with Sugar - nothing strenuous, just changes in direction, getting her to follow me, backing, etc. It's a way for me to stay in touch with her.

Betty did well with Morgunn given it's been over a month since she worked with him. He does a whole lot better when she gets him moving forward at a good pace. She actually has more control of him when she moves him out - even doing circles and figure eights. She did a good job with Morgunn and finished on a good note.

Nice that you're both getting out there again.

Some horses do seem to 'flow' better when their moving. I'm finding that one of mine is like that. Keep having fun!
