Hailey was new at the stable. She tacke up Granit in an english saddle, and bridle. She led her out, and looked around. There was an ndoor ring, wich looked like no one was there. She walked over, into it, and mounted Granit. Starting with warm ups she walked, trotted and cantered. she then went into a dressage rutine.
"extended trot, to collected canter, then into half-pass..." she said to her self...

" Well I am Jessica, Jess if you please. But do mind if I get on my English horse to go on a hack? I mean Buck, This horse, is a slow Western horse so I'll just go get my other horse."
Jessica looked around and troted Buck off towards GLory's stall and quickly got him into Casual Engish Garb then she mounted and set off to find Jed again.

"Okay, I'll wait here." said Jed patiently. He turned back to his horse, Fledge, nuzzzling his head into Fledges. His cell phone rang, startling Jed, but the horse just stood and gleen at him. He answered it, another business meeting call.

Step know how to get out and in to the stall on his own by hitting the bar with is nose. Jake grap a track box and ealked back out and there was Step standing right outside his stall. "What I'am I going to do with you, boy?" He asked the horse and walked back into the stall with Step.

"Ahhh.......I love your horse." Jed said, snapping the phone away. He clicked his toungue, signalling Fledge over. "I'll have to be careful, hes so nervous with other horses." he said, geering the horse on. "Come on, do you wanna be left behind?" he laughed, slowing down, waiting for Jess to catch up.

Lily crossed the street and headed downhill onto the trail. There was an old trailer on the side, along with old furniture and an old broken truck. She wondered what had happened.

Andy started to trot. Lily let him, and watched the ground for rocks, holes, or snakes.
She pulled Andy to a walk where it got rocky. There was a riverbed, shallow with pebbles on the bottom. White plants blew softly in the wind, making a brushing sound.

She pulled Andy to a walk. They had been walking for about 25 minutes now. She continued along the trail and it led her bacck to the stables.

Hailey walked out of the indoor arena, and saw no one in the jumping rink, or anyone around for that matter. She was able to relax, and led Granit into the rink and mounted.
She clicked and pressed with her outside leg to get Granit to a nise, easy canter. She neared the first jump that was set up, which was a small cross bar. She counted strides, and went up to two point just befor the jump. Granit made a nice little jump over the poles, ears pircked up, that it would have made a nice picture.

The landing was good, and Hailey sat back down, to canter to the next jump which was some cross rails. That jump went well too.

Hailey trotted Granit around the ring once, stopped, and patted Granit on the neck...

Lily put Andy away and went to go get Picasso. She decided today was a good day to give him a bath, and then feed him while he dried.
Lily remembered the jumping show the next day. A wave of anxiety passed through her, but Picasso never let her down. She knew he would take good care of her.
Picasso looked confused when he saw his owner. Lily walked towards him and slipped on his navy halter.
"Hey buddy, I know this seems weird to get you out again, but you're going to get a bath." Lily said, stroking Picasso's neck. She loved the way his mane changed color where his painted spots were. She led him out of the pasture and up to the washracks.

"Okay granit, we're going to try that taller cross rail. If you do good over that jump, I know you'll do good in the show tomorow. But I don't know how I'll do." Hailey said calmly to her horse, who snorted in response.
Hailey squeezed with her knees, and got Granit into a good gallop heading tward the jump. Counting strides in her head, she got ready to jump. Up to two point at the right moment. Up, up they went, then over the bars, back hoof just bearly missing the rail, and landing.Granit tripped a little at the landing.
Hailey slowed Granit down to a halt, then patted the golden neck of her filly. "good job," she cooed, "do you think your ready for the competition tomorow?"
Granit twiched an ear as if to answer, then looked over to Hailey with a look in her eyes as if to say, "No need to dout, of course I'm ready."

Hailey luaphed, and leaned forward to cudle her nose into the black mane...
