Sadly no video

Having been daft enough to tell us all she was riding Claude today it was no wonder there was a small audience on the bales today to watch when Ruth and Claude entered the indoor school.
We all agreed that his trot looks fab and Ruth was doing a great job with some help from Susie who was schooling Tilly.
Having decided to start her cool down without cantering Ruth was 'encouraged' to try a quick blast of canter and blast was the word , Claude responded immediately to the leg aid and took off . Ruth's face was a picture and her language choice to say the least ! Bless him he responded to the official aids and came back to trot very quickly with Ruth literally shaking on top .
She's decided that Claude's exercise tomorrow will either be on the lunge or time in the field - I wonder which he would prefer ?

Pea on a drum?? Ruth, you just need some longer legs. Back on again tomorrow!

Nope, Bianca jumped at the chance to ride him today...and she did a lovely job of it too. Plus I was off the hook!
