We then moved him up to the Pre-Greens inDecember with an "unknown" rider who he adores and she got great ribbons on him and beat out several well known pros. I showed him for my first time this past weekend and he was amazing. I am so impressed with how he acts like he has been doing this his whole life. I made some minor mistakes in the class but pinned in all the over fences and won the hack. I cannot wait until circuit starts. He will do the pre-greens for the first couple of weeks and then I will do the Adults on him."
