Deb, you've made my day!

I am always looking for ways for my members and sponsors to connect, and I agree wholeheartedly that Intercity's idea of the finishing brush is very classy and thoughtful!

The head of Intercity is Mike King (a longtime horseman). If you did want to send him a note or inquire about insurance, I know he'll be of huge help.

His email is mking@intercityinsurance.com

 

I hope you are having nice weather in B.C. Here in Toronto, we've been waking up to 4c!!

Thank you so much Deb!  The energy was amazing - I just wish the weather was better that day.

Thank you so mutch!

Yes Deb, we too wear out chambons here with lots of use!! I use them to bring horses back into work from a spell,  6 weeks before we ride them.

The breakers I find want to put their heads down and have a bit of a go sometimes and can panic with the chambon. To strenghten their backs I do a lot of lateral work with the longreins, seems to do the trick. 

I don't like to put the young ones on the chambon until they have been ridden a lot.
I'll longrein the breakers for about 2 weeks,in and out of the arena before I ride them outside.

he's going well, I've had the saddle on him quite a bit now and he's longreining v well .I have been a bit crook the last week so I've not done much work on him for a week. Will get around to putting some video up soon.

Thanks for the gift.  I'm glad you liked my blog.

Keep on riding!!!

the section 4's are a lot of fun. The stallion, Jasper, is a v nice Lippizana boy. he's only 3. we have a colt of his here as well ( he got in to the mares paddock and the owners thought he was too young to be getting up to funny business , how wrong were they). The colt is only 5 months old, we've called him Scratchy, today he jumped over the gate (1.20m) at a trot, cool as, just trotted around and went pop. Hoping he will grow big enough for me, his mother is an Anglo-Arab who was by a 16.2 hh tb so he might grow..

Had the first sit on Jasper the other day, v nice, just stood still.
