My girls.......

Well the girlies sure were full of beans today.......

Got Sky out for a bit of long lining and lunge work, she wasn't really paying attention, mainly becasue it was the first time she'd been up to the carriere in my friend Marianne's field and there were lots of potentially scary things to check out. We just walked about at first, until she'd stopped snorting at everything, then I asked for a bit of trot. That didn't go so well.........

 So I took her to the round pen so she could let off steam instead......

Got some nice pics at least today, no real work done though.......

Then when I took her back down to Kinns in the field, they had a fine old time

Meanwhile, the sensible older horse (!) was doing some work too, Ali wanted to work on her turns and transitions for jumping. Fina tends to rush a lot and sometimes has missed a jump because of her speed.........

So we practised trotting and cantering over poles on the ground in a serpentine and did a few other exercises like that from one of Ali's horse magazines, then we practised transitions, got a bit of vid of that

After that, Mike turned up and ran home with Ali and Fina so she's here ready for another CSO tomorrow. She was a bit anxious about being on her own, but is much happier when there's someone on the ground with her. Hopefully we can get another clear round tomorrow.......and there's no rain forecast for once!

Got a couple of nice pics of Fina too.....

.....and so she's not left out, here's one of Kinns :-)
