Lots of Work

Haven't blogged for a few weeks now, but me and Santana have been working very hard. I've managed to ride him pretty much every day for the last few weeks, even if its only for 20 minutes.

He's cantering really nicely on the left rein, much more balanced than he was before. We're still struggling on the right rein but, I think we are getting there slowly. Sometimes he leads on the right leg in front but not behind and he's all disjointed, Sometimes he manages to change and get it right. He's not nearly as balanced on the right leg though.

His jumping has come on really well. He's usually very careful when he jumps and he really stretches out over a jump. I think he's enjoying jumping.

Everyone is saying how much he has grown. I can't really see it as I see him every day, but I can see how much he has started to fill out. He actually has some muscles now!

I can't wait to see him in his summer coat this year, he's going to look gorgeous! Got some pics and videos to upload when I've got more time.
