Anky

Today was a beautiful sunny day and I couldn't wait any longer, I just had to ride Anky. She doesn't have that reassuringly solid and reliable feel that Corky has and I felt a little unbalanced and one-sided.
We worked at walk in the school and she was fairly settled and calm. Unfortunately there wasn't a lot of structure to the schooling, I was just so glad to be back riding her. We practiced a few halts, slowing down the walk with my seat, some leg yield on a circle and one or two attempts at shoulder-in. So not great on content, but fantastic on feel-good factor.

Very good. I always thought a gold star for enthusiasm was justified.
