It's a big part of the reason I don't ride much anymore as I feel like I'm just confusing Star(which I am) and I don't want to ruin her. <br />As you know, I bought her to breed, but for someone who has dreamed about owning a horse since she could first think, the temptation to want a riding horse as well is strong. Problem is, my formal riding training consists of two weeks of summer camp as a teen and two semesters of student teachers at UMD. Not knocking either, but that doesn't add up to a very confident rider. 99.9% of my horse experience (hotwalker, groom, foaling & broodmares) comes from the ground, not mounted. <br />I spent a lot of time researching Star's bloodlines, records, and finding a compatible local stallion I could breed her to. I would have been happy with that, but once I rode her a few times, I got a bit of an insight to how her brain works and was even more pleased with my choice. She's a very nervous horse, but she's a very eager horse. I feel like she would do anything I ask of her if I just knew how to ask the right way so it made sense to her. Just because I don't know what to do with it, doesn't mean I can't feel it :) Sure hope she passes that down to her foals. Hope you do a Retired Race Horses for Dummies clinic one day.Christie Lane Cravenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07781978401005337881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7409574810363484175.post-86501746921798374112011-04-12T13:30:27.777-04:002011-04-12T13:30:27.777-04:00I'd like an LTFR black and white oval sticker ...I'd like an LTFR black and white oval sticker for my car....That would keep people guessing.Lauryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17206515264734834934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7409574810363484175.post-8031649968105618432011-04-12T13:30:01.469-04:002011-04-12T13:30:01.469-04:00Great blog and LOL at the comments!
