I decided to bring Grace to Tunica to the Battle in the Saddle Barrel Race this weekend. I thought it would be a great way to let her see what her life will be like! I must say she settled in quite well the first day and when it came to to ride her Fri night she does like always and acted like she's been doing this all her life. We rode through the barn past all the four wheelers, people working, trash cans being emptied, etc. Then came the big test... riding into the main arena and holding pens where everyone was that was waiting to run. Once again, perfect & completely fine! Sat morning I got up early , got her fed and ready for exhibitions. I wanted to get in the arena early before they started. She walked right in and never looked at one thing. She went right to warming up as graceful as can be. No pun intended. I signed up for 4 exhibitions in which my intentions were to just trot her through to see if she could focus on what I was asking while being in a new environment with the noise and people. She made me happy and didn't let me down at all. There's quite a few that are friends on Facebook that got to see her today and complimented on how calm she was. I can honestly say I am totally smitten with her and I am happy with how our story is beginning!
