So for those of you that Gingers diary you will know that I have been have problems schooling it actually felt like we where going backwards.
Anyway EML suggested a change of saddle away from the dressage to a GP. Well I don't have a GP that fits him but a friend let me try her dressage it is the same as mine but a MW 17 not a W 17.5 When she checked mine (she is qualified) she said it was too wide.
Two sessions in the new saddle and old Ginger is back and ready to go. I am very pleased but also feel awful as his saddle has been checked twice in the 5 months I have had him. I do know he has changed shape completely his muscle as developing in all the right places and he looks great but I did not expect to change the saddle already.
Anyway another friend has offered me the use of her Bates 17 MW so will see how he goes in that one.
