I’m not sure I’m going to be able to send anybody to the trainer this year, as it’s turning out so far to be a money-tight year. I need to get them reminded of the basics anyway, as a year of loafing in the pasture seems to have made them forget some of their manners. It will be easier to work with them in the new barn, I won’t have to worry about them tossing their head and hitting the barn beams.

He was started under saddle a couple of years ago, and has just sat in the pasture loafing and stuff. I was going to work with him last year, but the fire turned all my plans to ash. This year, I’m going to either work with him myself, or lease him to a friend that has shown some interest in him. Either way, he needs to learn a job and maybe earn his keep.
