Re: [RC] [RC-Digest] Vol: 03.6436 new horse - Chipnml
Congratulations...she sounds wonderful, and I love her name...although I
keep thinking "Maui Wowie!"
My advice is the same I offer any newbie....don't get ahead of yourself,
and don't think she's indestructible. Take time to "learn" her. You
can always speed up if she's got what it takes, but if you go too fast you could
wreck a really nice horse. Of course, getting a horse with that many
miles under her belt is nice since you can check her record and see what kind of
rides she's done and go from there. I tend to be an ultra-conservative
rider, but then my horses have always been green when I've started them.
I'd keep the hackamore....they are sooo nice to compete in. The horses
drink and eat much better, and if you don't need a bit, why bother?
