, Belle is sweet and very people friendly. She is clever, learns quickly, a good mover and loves to have a job. She stands at the mounting block, good for the farrier and enjoys her grooming. We are currently working with her from the ground to introduce new and helpful concepts to her as well as slowly re-starting her under saddle. Belle has been pretty chill and quite easy to work with. Her 'go' from the leg button, is almost installed. She happily trots around on a good rhythm, her downward transitions are soft and easy, she's relaxed but attentive. We have just started adding short canter intervals to her riding sessions she is just as relaxed at the canter as she is at the trot. Belle is happy to have a job to do, but she's also quite happy to hang out and chat with anyone in or near the arena. When something spooks her or gets her attention, she's quite reasonable about it and doesn't go far. We are starting to book meet and ride sessions to people experienced with training and riding young OTTBs.
