It was hot and dusty yesterday in the school with Remy, so another very short session.
He's starting to offer more genuine bend on the right rein, but is still a little reluctant. His wolf teeth are definitely coming through now, more on that side and I wonder if it's bothering him a little. The equine dentist is due anytime so, hopefully we can sort it out.
I asked him for trot on the right rein for the first time and I was pleased at the way he coped. I can't say that about myself however, my balance and position is awful. It's a long time since I've done any trot work and it shows, I'm going to have to practice!! Jim did a vid.

Oooou Yummy stuff there Di! He and you are so very handsome together. I love your videos. Neat how you have a nice long leg to wrap around him..mine are so short..they kinda poke out from my mare's sides!
I thought your balance /leg stayed nicely under you..it is some of the first times and he really off his forehand..mkaes you feel unbalanced I bet.
It is all about the practice anyway...
I just started to do some intense trotting periods with my mare and she sometimes decides to slow or stop before I ask..it throws me forward, as when I ask for the transition I am weighted back and when she offers..sometime I am still in the air!
He's looking great Di and you are way too hard on yourself!!
