Subject: Working My Stallions

Heart of Gold-I took Gold to the prix arena and we warmed up with some caveletti and crossrails. He held his form over the jumps nicely. As he began to get bored of these he started to throw himself over them... not good at all. So I shortened up the reins and went on my way to the cross country course. He snorted. I tugged on the rein and he stopped thinking I decided to take him over the newe path my new 12 miler. It has twenty new jumps and is 7 miles long. That should be a thorough workout. Pulling at the bit we entered the box. I set him up and started my watch. We were off. He immediately galloped around the ridge to the first combo a old hay stack and a 4 foot log. He took them with ease. I tightened up and he slowed down quickly. At the third jump out of high spirits he bucked over the fence and unseated me tossing me onto his neck. Recovering my seat I slapped his neck and we galloped on. We had a good go!

Dark Victory-Today we worked on western sports with Vicki. He behaved beautifully. He kept his head good and low but he fought the bit. I think I'm going to need a lesson with you Telusive.

Blacklord Arabi- He did beautifully in his dressage workout. He bended perfectly and went into the different transitions easily. Then I lined up some cavelletti and trotted and cantered them. He really enjoys this. I hate to put his brigadoon on he hates it so much.

WD Bey Shah Faz- Worked on english seat with me today. He pulls on the bit to much and I don't appreciate it. He is trying to get to the mares. Im thinking about gelding him.. what do you guys think?

SRD Nuryev Beh- Worked Halter today. He's getting rusty... Free Lunged him today over jumps. He likes to throw himslef over them. Im going to put a saddle on him and ride him for the4 first time since I bought him.

En Gagea- Worked Dressage. If I haden't Known better I would have believed he was a schoolmaster and not a young horse. Possibility of training him to be a hunter.

Trepidation- Taught him to do a Passage and a Piruette. Is so Graceful. Keeps hhis head where it needs to be without
the brigadoon. Does a great Half Pass. Good Stud Exception!

Victory Gallop-Doing well in dressage.Prefer to race him till to old to race. Very clumsy growing to 17.1 hands tall!!!! Getting to be a big boy
