Who would have thought we were thinking of Winter last week. This week the temps have soared and the horses are moulting like crazy. In fact I am thinking of clipping them! Mulligan is going showing on Sunday to the do the Ridden Horse and Veteran Class and I am pleased to say that he is back to his old self. On Tuesday I went to fetch him in and he came GALLOPING accross the field like a 3 year old skidding on brakes and then towed me up to the yard which was far more energy than I had.
I think perhaps I had just messed up his sleep pattern last week and now he is permanently in at nights and seems very content. Sadie is due to come in on the weekend and hopefully Dainty will be ok out with the other girls a bit longer. Its great being able to phase them in like this and set up my routine gradually :)
There is another showing competition later in October which I may take Sadie along to as well as Muls to get her out and about again - she seems to be back to her old self be it a good thing or a bad thing! Then there is a bit of a break until Feb so they will just keep quietly ticking over until then. I think I might get into this showing malarky but will let you know again on Sunday evening. Its very finicky but I am trying to learn what it is all about.
