With my horse laid up for now, the jury is still out on exactly what is wrong with her, my mission is to train, train and then train some more this spring and summer.
I recall my Army drill sergeant telling me, “Victoria, take the cotton out of your ears and put it in your mouth.” In other words, shut up and listen.
I know there must be a correlation like this to riding. Mine, it would seem is to “get out of the competition arena and into the practice ring.” At least for the next several months anyway.
This is not a bad thing, given the results of my first and last competitions, which really, in all honesty, can’t be referred to as competitions at all.
Cormac on Primetime at Fieldstone (April 2012)
So to that end, I plan to “watch, listen and learn” from the best this show season starting with my trainer, Cormac Kennedy.
