Mummy's Boy

The horses were hanging around the gate this afternoon, so I brought them out one by one to work them.
First a session with Anky in the school. Remy wasn't very happy and I could hear him calling throughout but Anky just ignored him. Little mummy's boy, it'll do him good.  We started with the in-hand and then ridden. We're getting the start of a nice giravolta and today she kept the softness through her neck for a few strides before beginning to tense again. She was very spooky when we started, but was pretty calm by the time we finished the session.
A couple of short sessions with Remy and Bonbon. First Remy, a 10 minute session concentrating on the halt, asking for the softness through the neck and then asking for the walk transition, back to halt or into giravolta. He got some nice steps today staying up through his shoulder with a nice, even stride.
A short in-hand session with Bonbon asking and maintaining the halt, softness through the neck to a walk transition. She's not as shufflly (not sure that's a word) as Rem and seems quite happy to stand until asked to walk on.
