Only a little show but a red for the Novice ridden and then a red for the Ridden Pony. O is doing really well. I was quite worried as she was very novicey on Toudle at first and we were constantly on at her for her hands, and legs and, well just about everything! But all of a sudden she is making a great little rider. Toudle was a star, he is starting to carry himself beautifully and despite a tendency to give the incorrect lead on right canter (which he did once or twice in other classes so she got a third and a fourth) he really tries for her. Love this pony!

Well done them ... but I have to chuckle that the OH does not realise his true worth. OHs huh?! What do you have planned for the little star then?

Haff he is an unregistered Dartmoor Hill pony, very true to type with a lovely head. He was the one I bought cheap at the sales when I bought the rather expensive by comparison lead rein pony that has done ok at lead rein but is too sharp for first ridden.
Rac, she is showing again this Sunday at my riding club so plenty to enter and she did pony club last night and is just getting going jumping. He did everything asked last night with just a look at the gate so he is getting the hang of jumping, albeit only small jumps. I have a cunning plan to help them jump bigger though!! He would follow me over anything so if they have a nice clear round on Sunday I might take her in and jump on foot ahead of her!!! Hope my knees are up to it!

They would buy him but I wont sell. Her hubby keeps asking me! I would rather loan him than sell. I think I find selling a bit too traumatic!
