Young horses are full of surprises!
If you’ve produced a young horse, you’ll know all too well that they are full of surprises. They’ll walk passed the things you least expected them to, and suddenly slam on brakes at a fly!
Shannon Smith entered her gorgeous Callaho Condino in the 5 Year Old category at the Young Horse Performance Series Final, held at Steyn City. The beautiful, elevated arena is very ‘open’ and most horses cope well with the increased awareness of space. “Dino” warmed up beautifully and took every jump in his stride in the show ring until…the hay bales under the jump! He was not interested in jumping what looked like part of his dinner.
