My new pony Ginge!

This is my new pony Ginge! He is a 13.2 multi supreme purebred English riding pony. He is a Chestnut with 3 white socks and a blaze and his eyes practically pop out of his head! He is a fine saddle hunter and last year at HOY (horse of the year) he got supreme saddle hunter of the year, beating all the other saddle hunter horses and ponies. I have had Ginge for a month now and he has been amazing so far!

This picture was taken at Mc Leans island equestrian centre just after we had our second lesson with top dressage rider, Christine Weal. In the first lesson he was a really good boy and we learnt lots of new skill, but in the second lesson he wasn't quite keen on us drilling it into him... He reared wee bit but we got him in the end. Although he was a good boy in the end on the way out we had to go through a narrow gate and on the ground there was half a log and long story short he jumped it and on the way over I whacked my knee on the metal part of the other gate. So yeah, not the best ending but it was a good experience!
