She feels like she's got Shortly all handled, so she wants the challenge of riding another horse. So we put her saddle on Quigly and gave it a go. (Of course, he's a totally good boy, so there's not a worry. He's just very big compared to Shorty.)
We asked them to do a few laps first, so she could feel how differently he moves.
Tiny kid and tiny saddle on big horse!
She claimed he moves just like Shorty.
(I admit I took my eyes off her for just a moment for a pretty snapshot as the sun's rays were coming over the hillside.)
After some warm-up laps, she put him through a little routine she does with the cones. He's a very easier reiner.
She keeps asking us when we will put up some barrels so she can run that pattern. Ay yi yi.....
