We have done all the groundwork with her
And have now backed her.

She does stand to tack up and allows the bridle on .
She isn’t phased by any traffic we have seen .
She is used to dogs, noisy children and being on a busy yard .
She is hacking out alone and in company
In walk and trot .
She has just started work in the school and seems to have accepted that and had her first couple of canters.
She has popped some coloured poles and is quite capable .
She happily lives in and out with mares and geldings with no issues .
She does come to catch.
Stands for the farrier has been shod but is now currently barefoot and manages fine.
We have clipped her , wary but she coped well .
Also had her mane pulled
