Shall we give up on the idea of groundwork and just ride, or not? that is the question.
my feeling is, on balance, we should ...
but I'm not planning on getting on him if I'm on my own LOL
Rode friend's cob again tonight, lot of walk, two lots of trot and a small unasked for canter - very comfy on nice welshy! no nerves on my part, and i'm clearly a lot more agile than i was, what with all the swimming and stuff...
and two weeks today, Max will be here, touching wood for no more abscessed or whatever..... so he can sort out the groundwork, LOL, since we can't!
Somebody needs to ride him. That is the kind of training he is most familiar with and it's likely to help him all round if he gets some saddle time in.
