Hacking and Cantering........

Yipeee, the sun is back!
Susan and Laura came over and we went for a hack down the tracks and then Laura had a lesson on Corky in the school.
Remy was pretty cool about the whole thing and was out in front. On the way back we decided to have a trot up a lovely grassy track. I was so pleased that he gave me such a lovely powerful trot and then offered me a lovely ground covering canter, our first out on a hack!  Made my day!  Corky got into the spirit of things too and decided she didn't want to be left behind so cantered to catch us up. It's a long time since she's done that. I think she quite enjoyed it. A bit of a surprise for Susan, but she handled it brilliantly!
Corky's not used to going in the school, in fact the only other time she's been in there she was with Remy. She settled really nicely though and was a good girl for Laura.I really enjoyed seeing Laura ride her and  I hope Laura enjoyed it too.
Laura took some pics for us.

sounds like a good hack, and Remy is indeed proving to be a superstar...

She did didn't she, sorry Claire, I'd forgotten. Remy's a little star, can't believe how lucky I am!
