Firefly (Fred)





Here is Fred. This is a before and after! The last picture is when Lizzy tried him the second was taken today at his 2 nd Hunter Trial and boy what a star he was with another super clear. Liz has spent the last 2 weeks getting him to go forward in a nice outline. He did have a high head carriage and the underside of his neck was strong with no top line he is now working lower and lengthening his stride correcting the neck and making him a far nicer horse to ride.
We are hoping he will go on this winter and do some dressage and show jumping fingers crossed. He is now proving to be a brave little horse and taking on anything and should make a super little eventer!!
