First lesson on Ginger for a month and feel like we are back to day one.:banghead: My shoulder aches for his constant leaning, he would not bend or give and argued for 45 minutes.
I can honestly say sometimes riding him makes me feel like a complete beginner all over again.
I then got ask to ride one of the other Ex racers on the yard and to my complete shame I rode him really badly as well. As Ginger was so heavy in my hands today I took up to much contact with T and he did not like it at all. When I finally realised what I was doing and soften he went nicely for me but man I felt like crap and a complete failure.
having such a down moment and again doubting my ability to re school a horse to the level I want.:cry:
Sorry very self indulgent post
