Crazybit & Lily | | 2012-07-10 16:13:15 | | Lauren: I rush back into the barn, I hook rusty into the cross ties into the barn. I untack rusty taking the saddle off, unbuckling the girth and removing the saddle pad. Then I remove the bridle, carefully removing the reins and slipping the bit out of Rusty's mouth. Then I begin to groom him. I start with my Rubber curry and lightly stroking his coat to remove the loosen dirt, I make little circular motions to remove the dirt effectively. Then I take the Dandy brush finishing off the coat on both sides to take the remaining dirt off of his coat. Then I take the body brush to give him a extra smooth coat to impress the judge. Then I grab the hoof pick and begin to take the stones off of his hooves avoiding the frog. Then I place all the utensils back into the grooming box and take it back to the tack room. Then I hook Rusty's halter to the cross-ties. I walk over to the tack room placing the saddle pad on the rack, Following the saddle, then the bridle on the bridle hook above the saddle rack. I then go and grab my Dressage saddle, Bridle, and saddle pad off of the other saddle rack and close the door. I walk over to rusty and begin to tack him. I place the black saddle pad on his back, making sure It's placed correctly on his back and the hair's don't brush the other way. Then I place the black dressage saddle on Rusty's back, on top of the saddle pad. I place the dressage girth over to the other side adjusting it so It will keep the saddle in place correctly. Then I tighten the girth again, making sure the saddle won't slip off. Then I place the bridle on I open Rusty's mouth and slip the D-ring bit into Rusty's mouth then placing the headpiece and carefully placing the reins over Rusty's head. I unhook the cross-ties and lead Rusty out of the barn and into the arena. I unhook the lead rope and place it over the arena fence. I mount up rusty placing my right foot into the stirrup swinging my left leg over the saddle and into the left stirrup. I hold the reins with both hands. I'm wearing my black dressage coat with my white show breeches and my black matted boots and my black top hat. Rusty bob's his head and he is ready to warm up. I urge Rusty into a collected trot. His movements are flawless and he carefully prances between each step. I change leads into a collected canter, I turn the reins left and he canters with a graceful stride around the dressage ring. I spur him into a passage his movements proves that his delectable manner is quite astonishing. He prances into his stride and I turn the reins left facing the middle of the ring. I pull gently back on the reins and slow him into a extended trot. Rusty's head drops and relaxes with this movement. I pull back on the reins to stop rusty. I bow my head and stop practicing. I exit the ring, while closing the arena gate. I stand next to Chelsea with Rusty while watching the other riders warm up.

Crazybit & Lily | | 2012-07-10 16:56:28 | | (Pretend I cooled Lady down and un tacked her)
*I put Lady in the wash stall and wash her, then I blow dry her and groom her now sparkling white coat, That's when Lauren walks in. Then I paint her hooves with a clear polish. I put a White Dressage saddle pad with Hot pink trimming, then a Shiny black dressage saddle, I slide on a double bridle with a gentle double bit. The I put on black polo wraps and bell boots, I put on a thin breast plate and attach a running Martingle* There, now for the hoof polish. *I paint on black sparkly hoof polish* | 
ParelliChick & Lady of the Mist | | 2012-07-11 13:44:12 | | | *I smile at Lauren.* "Good luck! I know you and Rusty will do great!" | 
chelsea2 & Irish | | 2012-07-11 23:58:23 | | | *I walk Lady out next to Rusty and Eclipse once the hoof polish dries, Lady seems to know whats going on, because she collects herself and curls in her head, I make the reins a little tighter, so it looks like I'm in control. I walk, Spanish Walk, Shoulder in walk and extended walk with her, then I trot, collected trot, and extended trot with her, I repeat with canter and then I slow way down to passage. Then I move her to the middle ring and she does a little rear, one of the Aires that only Lipizaners can do, then rears high and tall, hopping forward 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 steps, then lands and canters, getting enough momentem and leaps into the air, her hind legs kicked out and her front legs curled in, she hangs for a second, as if suspended in air, then lands and trots over to Rusty And Eclipse, I dismount and grab a brush, brushing off the extra dirt on her and me. I have on a White Oxford with a black overcoat and white breeches with Black Show boots, on my head is a net for my hair and a black top hat, my hair is in a braid, coiled up into a bun and then clipped in by the bun.* Hi! *I remount* I'm SO excited! |
ParelliChick & Lady of the Mist | | 2012-07-13 03:46:57 | | Lauren: "Thanks! I hope you and Mad Skillz do great too!" I say patting her on the back.
"Hey will you watch Rusty for me, I think I lost my dressage belt for my breeches." I say with a worried look on my face. |
Crazybit & Lily | | 2012-07-13 03:46:57 | | | (OOps! Not Elcipse, Mad Skillz) |
ParelliChick & Lady of the Mist | | 2012-07-13 21:55:15 | | Chelsea - "Sure thing!" *I reach over for Rusty's reins.*
*I was wearing black boots with white breeches, a black jacket and a purple shirt under it. My golden hair was pulled back into a bun, with a braid wrapped around it.
Mad Skillz's black coat as black as darkness, a purple saddle pad (same shade as shirt) and purple boots. A black dressage saddle on his back, and a black dressage bridle.* |
