Shown in turnout with our Morgan mare Coco (VJC Mystical Enchantress) We plan on riding them together for the first time next week. We want Knight to settle in and also we are waiting for a new bit for him. A bit with a curb strap. For some reason Knight has a very unresponsive mouth. I don't know if he was trained by having his mouth jerked and therefore has many fractures and callouses on his jaw bones. Or if he was never taught a one rein and then the other slow and stop. All I know is I do not want to be the one to teach him this. We were also told the Knight had major allergies to flies. That he need to wear a fly sheet, and fly boots, and that he kept ripping off his fly boots. None of this proved to be true.
They look a good pair. What bit are you going to try him in?
ReplyDeleteWe are getting a western curb bit with an articulated high port and a copper roller. Coco has the same one but with out the roller.
