My first sales horse

I had an amazing jumping session today, jumped three oxers ranging from 3'3" to 4'6"! I jumped the 3'3" and 4' oxer with not many problems (only a couple stops) and then my trainer asks me to do something that most people would think is impossible, but it's apart of my everyday training. He asked me to jump a vertical to an oxer at an "impossible" 90 degree turn in three strides. The vertical I jumped easily, but going to that big oxer I kept psyching myself out and kept stopping. After every stop, my trainer would talk and pushed just the right buttons on me to make me really mad and determined to jump that big oxer no matter what. I finished off my lesson jumping the vertical to the oxer two times! Success!!


Back to the main topic of the story...that horse I wrote about yesterday, he's going to be my very first sales horse!!! I'm so very excited to get to work with this very sweet and talented horse. I'm going to ride him again tomorrow and I'll be sure to tell you how it goes. That's all for today, I don't really feel like writing a huge article. Have a grand and mystical night.
 Love, Miska.
