Regarding the Horses in our lives...

Here is a video I just stumbled across I like what she does and her little stallion is awesome. The exercises are what one does with a horse that gets too strong and full of themselves....

I like her in hand work as well. I could do that with Katee too.

Katie has alot of substance.... did you ever give polo a try? We have a huge polo community in San Diego.

She was a big girl for a Thoroughbred (wide and big boned). Never did try polo even though there were a few places to do it. My hand to eye coordination isn't very good, so I doubt I'd be able to hit the ball, lol. Most of the competitive riding I've done has been eventing, hunter/jumpers and the Welsh circuit.

Quote: If she was a Thoroughbred she was too big. They use ponies for polo.... 14-15 hands because of the need for speed and agility too.

I love Thoroughbreds once they "grow up" I had an off the Track gelding by the name of Stone Road. Kentuckey bred. At six years old he was built like a greyhound... Deeep chest but narrow... I found him a good home with a hunter jumper person...

Just found out that there is a polo place a few miles from me... Kind of rare in this area. Only three other arenas I know of futher north.

Nice.... Here we have one in Del Mar

Marys Tack room is right across the street from it. Its the only place I can find a fully adjustable warmblood halter.... Katee has a Warblood sized head instead of a draft horse sized head. Her proportions are a bit different so I need adjustment around the nose. Plus I like the halters that have a clip on the cheek.

They have English gear downstairs and western gear upstairs. About the only full service tack room left in the area....
