[RC] Finding your horse's "vital energy"????:-) - Chrystal WoodhouseFunny I was thinking of this very thing this week as I started to condition/train my 6 yr old Morab mare for my daughter and as my back up endurance horse, when I got her last fall she was quite a handful, rearing.spinning and spooking, then she got FAT over the winter and this year has been totally easy and quiet!! SO easy and quite actually that I don't like riding her much, it seems I am always asking her to move forward ( not even fast just **obviously** forward would be good :-)) this is such a huge change from my ***real**:-) :-) :-) horse , the only thing I have ever done with her speed related is try to get her to stop!!! So I have been wondering as I am riding this new horse if it is possible to get them to eventually go forward at a decent pace ( I am assuming time and conditioning will do some of that)) but how far will/can they improve?? To have a competitive horse do you need a fireball that is going to provide you with lots of campfire stories relating your "war wounds" /helmets smashed/time spent in the hospital etc......-) or have people had sane, slowish horses that have sped up????
