Re: [RC] Building A Base - David & MaggieI find that letting a younger or inexperienced horse run free to follow when I ride is a great way to get started on the base. I agree, to an extent. First, make sure everyone gets along, no one is in season, and no one is in a mood to kick up their heels. I got kicked just below the knee by a three-year-old filly while riding my old gelding. She was 'in' and he was 'talking' to her. She trotted up to him, sniffed noses, squealed, wheeled and kicked me. I was on crutches for a month.
