Atrax

My summer project this year is a little pony gelding named Artax! He's about 14hh, near 11years old and is of unknown heritage. He was sold to a barn called Out Riders, and was supposedly being trained to be a lesson horse. He didn't last long, because he was too unpredictable & spooky to be a good lesson horse. He preferred a steady routine, and all the different riders made him nervous, so the owner gave him to Brenda, the lady that owns him now. Brenda has been working with him for the past 3 years, and now he's a great little trail horse. I've started schooling him in an arena for probably the 1st time in 3 years, and he's been doing wonderfully! He's great with his canter leads, which is surprising because trail horses don't have to know their leads, so he's unpracticed with it. He falls out a little on circles, and needs to work on straightness, but he's perfect and (almost)a total push button! I might consider teaching him to jump, if it's okay with his owner(Brenda). I cant ride him untill I'm back from France, but then I have permission to go to the barn 6 days a week! Either way, i'll keep you posted. C U when im back from FRANCE!
