ok!i said. i halted Churchill and looked down at my hands. i widened them alittle less the when i ride western then when i found the position i tapped Churchill for a walk as we circled the arena. after we went once i kissed to him and asked for a trot. i kept my seat low and when Churchill sped up i bent by back and came down hard to slow back down and he obeyed. then i came to a halt in front of Mango and asked,'' was that good?''i leaned in the saddle and patted Churchill. i walked him around a small circle.

Very nice for a first timer! Be sure to keep alot of contact with his mouth as his head must be up and i must have that struting stride. Ok around once again sitting deep with legs bent only slightly at the knee, with his head up and his legs right.!
