long day

I will revisit and describe a bit more of each of the five horses. I worked Angel this morning, a routine warm-up which i feel is essential then work at the walk, trot and canter with contact. My expectation is that she go round, soft and forward. I then did some halts and turns on the haunches. She was lovely and soft with the exception of the transition to the halt where she wants to lean into the bit, i will need to have more leg driving her forward into the downward transitions.

I then taught a local youth group in a dressage clinic for eight hours then worked Silver. He was looking for things to shy at but with draw reins, he remained soft, and obedient.
