This is a 14 year old under saddle, he has only been ridden twice over the winter on a slow trail ride has not done any ring work at all, and last year was ridden about five times as I was focusing all of my time on getting my young 3 year old horse ready to compete in the versatile horse and rider contest at Equine Affaire.
The year before is when I had taken Rio to Marshfiled Fairgrounds over night to every cowboy mounted shooting event to warm up with the riders, to small versatility contest indoors and out and to two hunter paces his first ever. He did great at all of these events place 4th at the big apple and Apple Knoll in the slow division
Very nice!!
