Businesslike midweek

As yesterday, we worked in the school in my snaffle in the morning. We began with lots of walk on a long rein stretching as much as posible, going large on both reins. We then shortened and did a lot of halt/walk transitions and lateral work and 20 metre circles and then went up to trot and canter. We still had problems falling in and will need to work on this with general lack of roundness.

We ran through Prelim 18 once or twice and went in to be sponged down, groomed and put out to graze. Dibbs joined me afer his hack and we stayed out until 4.30.

We came in to be groomed and fed after another structured day. Cobs like things to be businesslike - but with apples and minties.
