 Hi I'm Ryan Emerton. I'm a trainer here at Slate River Ranch. Today I'm going to show you some two-year-olds. It's early July. They've had about six months training. First horse I'm going to focus on is a little slow-footed. I'm going to teach you how to approach a horse like this. The second horse she's a little squirmy on my feet. I'm going to track a cow around on her on her quad a bit and get her to soften up. And the third horse is a real cow horse. I'm going to explain how I keep her disciplined and focus on the basics and building the foundation. This mare here she's a little doorway-feely. I really like she wants to stop. She's cow-y. She's been at times a little bit heavy feeling. So I keep that in mind always. Really try to stop. I really try to get that draw right there light feel. And I want to use this turnback man a little bit more on this horse to really get a lot of move away. A lot of feel for that cow. Because she's a little bit heavier. If I get up there on top of that cow too much it's going to be a wrestling match me trying to force that turn right here. It's that cow making that turn right there. Here right here I just keep drawing that cow to me riding away. Keep that front end clean. Here that cow has released me. It's a good spot to break across. Again she's she's she's hard to do a lot of this to clean her up right there. Here it's keeping up with this cow. Trying to get all the way across. Draw same this way. She's a little bit a little bit lopy there. Ride her away and get a stop. Draw try to let her hook to that cow there on her own. Same on this side. Got her ears working. She's thinking about it at all. Better come through there on her own. Here the cow has released me again. Another good spot to break off. Yeah it's not it's not pretty. Try to do it again and get her to really clean them feet up and move away. That was a little better. They want to do it all the time. I want now I'm going to go back to that cow and and have the cow make that move. I don't want it to be. When I break off I'm not taking her all the way off the cow. I still want to have that connection with the cow in her mind. What what that does as I said it'll clean up the front end and if I'm traveling across there and she feels like she's freewheeling a little bit. If I break her back across I'll redirect her attention back to that cow. Again not real pretty. Just keep work chipping away at it until I feel like she's picking her feet up and putting where they're supposed to be.
