Fri. Misc.

Hopefully back to posting tomorrow.

Training:

Tues. 1/4: Off

Wed. 1/5: 19 min walk-trot.

Thurs. 1/6 Nice w/o but with incident at end. The two horses were playing and galloping in the paddock on arrival. Thinking injury to 16 yr. old less than thought. Give him a try. They do 1.5 miles enthusiastic riderless spurts. The older horse is stepping a little gingerly afterward, but without limping. The fence related injury looking more now a slight strain or sprain of tendon or suspensory than pulled sesamoid. Good news. Rodney galloped up the familiar hill 3 times. 19 min tack work. And then the moment Nob relaxes and pats the horse "good job" severe spook and the horse almost goes over backwards. Nob hung on. Another reminder.
