On board Indy again, this time for a lesson with Ruth. She gave us some great tips for mounting more safely and doing up his girth and moving off etc. He was an absolute superstar. Even though he's been backed and ridden round an xc course in Ireland, he's missed out on so much desensitisation so it's great to have the luxury of taking a step back and starting over. And it's helping us form a strong bond with him. 

I also had a lesson on Buddy and Eva had a lesson on Jack. Eva worked on doubles and keeping a consistent rhythm in canter. I did some grids and walk to canter transitions. Bud was fab.
