One wordā¦. Variety!(and yes this muddy horse is the same as the one in the show ring!)
When producing young horses/ponies no matter the breed you must always make sure that you keep them happy! I can confidently take my young horse out showing and competing this spring as he spent a winter hacking, racing and hunting and heās THRIVING!
As he has been kept happy and sweet and fit he can turn his hoof to any discipline, that is the beauty of working with your young horses and ponies!
So let them get muddy, let them have fun, hack, go hunting and galloping with lots of turn out and they will give back to you 10x
Always allow your young horses to succeed by keeping them happy and forward!
