Work

The office has got me distracted till the big thing on Thursday. Very little left in this tiny brain for the blog. We've been training:
Art: mile a day trotting under tack. Hopefully we'll be galloping within a couple of weeks. Riderless work about 10 min/day. Today 3 x 2f at 90% speed. I'd like to say he looked good doing the speed but, Art has gotten a little pudgy during our riderless to tack transition. We've got some work to do.
Y: We continue to do gentle riderless work now up to about 6 x 2f with an occasional acceleration of a few strides to work on fast twitch. Tack work has gotten to stage of lunging both ways without problems. We're ready for the long reigns to go with the surcingle and bridle.
