My niece Steph & Tor, its their first Dressage day off lead, the steering still needs some work especially on the 20m circles. Steph is just a beginner so she was happy to have managed to rise to the trot and mostly keep him trotting.... maybe next time she will have a go at cantering Tor went kindly for her and they got 1st in their class
Wild Trakehenrs.... I don't think so
He is also my level 2/ 3 dressage horse (and we are slowly working our way higher).
We are in Christchurch, New Zealand, so it is just coming into Autumn here.
I think Tor is more than happy not to be having to lug me round (I am quite heavy) and that he is being asked nothing more demanding than looking after Steph, no collected or medium work or lateral work.
