video + not smooth sailing

Mon Jun 23, 2008, 12:29 PM
so
Barney rode in the division before me and did great he was jumping and cantering fine and etc..
But I rode him after that and he was SO tired because he usally only does 1 ride a day I had to use spurs and crop him because he DIDN'T want to move.I rode him for flat and came in LAST place , I feel lik such a crappy rider.I couldn't even get him to canter :{.So the barn owner said he's wayy to tired amnd we left him in his stall.So I finished the last half (jumping) on Cairo who did so great we then got 1st and 2nd I was happy about that but overall I did "okay".It just bums me out because I feel like such a crappy rider like I couldn't get Barney (who I rode in flat) to canter and I had spurs and a crop , but he was really stubborn to and tired because 40 minutes later I went in his stall and his stomach was still sweaty and he was tired.So I'm still consdering half leasing like Cairo since the class before me always rides Barney flat + jumping and he never wants to move by the time I ride him. Oh video here :[link]
it's just courses with Cairo.
I need some help pleasee? I need to know who to half lease by this Saturday :O

PICTURES COMINGGGGG

I love Cairo's look and him jumping, he is gorgeoyus and you did ride him very well. I would go half lease with the horse you have a better personal and working relathionship with. You can get Barney into shape slowley with a hald lease, so he won't be exausted being ridden longer then usual. My best friend got Coal into shape, takes awhile though and you have to plan out what you want. I like Cairo personaly, but it is your choice. If he is a possibilty and a fitter horse I would go with him, if you guys ride well together and he makes you feel like a good rider I would chose him. But up to you ^_^ you looked good jumping lol, I jumped for the first time in a little more then a year last saturday lol. Me and Snuggles, he is a good boy and I had Kita couching me at jumping and cantering. Then I unsaddled him and we barebacked for a short while.

Don't worry about it. I was the only one to ride Gus the day I showed him and I couldn't get him to do well for me at all. He refused like three jumps and would not canter. I came in last in two classes and second to last in the other two, ahaha. So be thankful you at least redeemed yourself (;
And just pick which one you're happier with. Cairo is cute but if you love Barney, go with him. Maybe you could work something out where he doesn't get ridden before you, or to work him more to get him in shape.
