Chrissie worked on getting a marching walk from Adiron. He certainly doesn't move like her 17 hh hunt horse.

 

They had a few discussions on what constituted a forward walk. I'm not sure who won.

She said his trot felt nicely energetic.

He listened to her leg for bending.

He's a good size, with enough substance for his height.

I think he'd prefer to trot along forward, but a bit flat.

Every once in a while she'd get him rounded up and more balanced.

He's very good about foward at the trot.

I've got both the youngsters in a flash right now. We're ramping up the 'questions' and don't want them to respond with an open mouth for avoidance. With most my guys, they get through a stage, then the flash comes off. It might go on again when they get to the next stage.
