Nowt really interesting to blog at the mo. Can't wait until we have lighter nights or proper arena lights (sadly I know which one of those options will happen first) Rory hasnt been ridden too much and its showing in hes dropped quite a bit of topline and hes looking rather lean but as he's adlib hay and a warm rug and as much fattening hard food as he will eat as a feed there really isnt a lot more that I can do. Whoever said Dales were a good doing hardy breed obviously forgot to tell Rory.
Got a bit of time off between xmas an new year so will try to up his work. Trouble with that is though getting him to eat more food as hes not greedy and gets full easily.
Pait is doing well with Em riding her shes had a couple of lesson with moody mare hat on but really worked well today. The show trot is beginning to emerge and I cant wait to see her fully fit and in the ring. Her nickname is either going to be tank or bull as she's certainly not small and looks set to fill out even more!
Speaking of bull like at 3.5 Duke is looking rather huge 0.0 he's going to be another well built chunk but will be a good 14.2 like pait if not slightly over. Poor Rory really is starting to look weedlike in comparison.
