⭐️⭐️Some things money can’t buy⭐️⭐️

My mums old horse ‘Cushla’

A face that’s been around since I was a kid, of all the horses that we had come and go throughout my childhood , he stayed.

I can actually remember the day we bought him, he cost £300 in Abergavenny market, he was a yearling c**t, Tyrebecca Dynamite is his registered name, hes by a horse called Medley Jupiter, a proper old school stallion and Royal Welsh champion in his day….

My mum took to him and the rest is history, gold bars couldn’t buy him of her and honesty in his day, plenty tried her!

What a servant he’s been to us, me and my brothers rode and drove the legs of him when we were young, he was a full horse until he was 8, he covered hundreds of mares with us and bred some decent foals.

He worked for years in our little riding school teaching kids and more importantly gave my mum endless hours of happiness…

I promised my mum before she died, he’d see his days out with me and I meant what I said… I like to get money as much as the next man but some things money can’t buy… he’s one of them things.

You know, I look at him, I see my mum, I hear her voice , I get all my childhood memories come to my mind every time I see him, how do you put a price on that?

I was 10 years old when they bought him, I’m the boy holding him in that picture, I’m the man stood beside him in that picture and there my children now sat on his back…. PRICELESS 👌

I’m not really an emotional or soppy fella but I tell ya, the day he lays down for the last time will be a sad day for me, a lot of things will go with him when that day comes 😏

⭐️⭐️Stop taking life so serious⭐️⭐️

This memory just came up on my phone of my litttle lad last year playing with his pony, jumping on her falling off , climbing underneath her, just having a blast he was 🤣

I always say how serious the horse world is, no fun at all everyone has there poker face on….

Chill out abit will ya… stop taking yourself so serious, have a laugh, enjoy yourself , take that plum out off your mouth, pull that broom stick you’ve got shoved up arse out and relax!

You’ll honestly get on better with most horses when you don’t put so much pressure on yourself to be a certain way or fit the mold ✌️

Remember why you got into horses in the first place…. Just a care free kid wanting to have fun with his/hers pony.

⭐️⭐️Ride the ears forward⭐️⭐️

This was Diva today, I bought her a couple of weeks ago now but really got started working on her this last 7 days… I’ll be honest, she’d obviously had someone up on her back and ridden up and down a bit , but she was nervy and absolutely clueless.

Everyday she’s come on a bit more, improving, growing her confidence, she’s coming on very well and a lovely kind cob.

I worked her this morning and this evening this is what I was doing with her, ‘riding her ears forward’ pushing her forward, loose reins and driving forward.

Green horses or young horses a lot times lack forward motion, most people are worried of Green or nervous horses running away with them and of course that can happen but 80% of the time , what they actually need is opening up, driving forward, it doesn’t matter what type they are, you may think ‘well that’s ok on a cob like that’ I ride all different types of horses from the top to the bottom, there all the same, some are just more athletic that others, but there minds are the same….Once you get there feet out of the bind and they’ll move out freely, they become much calmer and easier to ride, the opposite to what most people think!

You watch over the next few days how this mare progresses, she’s gonna be doing plenty of long steady cantering on loose reins the next few days!

If you’ve a sticky, nervy, lazy , strong, spooky, whatever horse… do this and you’ll see the results, trust me 🫡

If your a nervous rider or don’t like the thought of not hanging on the reins as a comfort blanket… well get yourself a beer or a shot whiskey before you get on and get going!

You’ll feel great when you get off, you’re braver and more capable than what you think, but you got to do these things to realise 👌
