What a lovely day it was today and today I had my helper down and we went for a nice hack most of t5he pictures were taking from horse back so they are not perfect. First I got beverly my helper to put xsara over some trot poles. First we did short poles to make her lift her legs when i had them set about right I raised the poles as instructor told me to encourage her to be more up hill and lift her shoulders up. Then i had another set of trot poles which were longer to make her stride out after she had learned to lift her feet up, and wow how beautiful it was to see when she got it right.
I then tacked kiara up waiting patiently for her turn I mounted in the paddock and xsara waited We then set of down the road kiara in lead most of the way as she walks so sharp and xsara was being a bit lazy we then ended up at the beach kiara stood and took it all in while xsara was being a little monkey and wouldn't go near the water for her we then swapped horses and beverly said she would hold kiara while i tried to get xsara into the water she followed me straight in I then mounted her and rode her in and out no bother lol I then turned round to find beverly on kiara we then swapped horses and beverly got back onto xsara and entered the water with no hassle then we set of again and took a detour we went down a nice country lane and ended up going through a little tiny village which was nice. we then took off again up a nice lane towards the forest unfortunately we couldn't get into the forest so we turned for home and headed back it was a really lovely day
