I drove my young 3 year old paired with his sister, even in a clinic for one
lesson, and he was very good, very relaxed and steady. Then I thought maybe
I should do more work with him single, and I noticed first couple of drives
single, he was not steady at all. It was like he was saying "what? do I
have to pull ALL THE TIME?" So I think in the pair he was sometimes
pulling, sometimes not, and I think he needs to get more work single under
his belt.
Hardy, I do notice the 40 meter circles are great, he has learned to give
and bend slightly on the circle. The 20 meter up the center line is a
little difficult, he does bend but wants to make it wider, but I am very
pleased with his work ethic and bending, and learning he has to pull all the
time when he's in harness.
What do the pair drivers do, do you work your horses single a lot, a little,
or not at all? Especially a young horse who is learning?
