Ridecamp: Fwd: [RC] Green Horses

Well I don't know if BOTH are green but this kid of pair has no business "training at a ride. They need to get un-green before they come to a ride. A few issues are on ething - but uncontrollable at the start, uncontrollabel gaits, etc - well that is dangerous. I will take spooking over a runaway any day of the week, though.
