Good pony!

I rode Riv last night for the first time since the show.  I was just going to hop on him for a few minutes, but he was being so good I ended up riding for a while and he got pretty sweaty.

Last night I rode him like my old guy.  So I rode him like I meant it, and like he's capable of doing it.  I've been babying him.. with him being so good at the show, I trust him more and have more confidence, so I can ride him more decisively, if that makes sense.

We did a lot of circles, transitions, etc.  Nothing major, just decent work.  He does loooove the stretchy trot.  I tried to get video, but my phone wasn't cooperating.

Foamy lips:

Such a good boy!
