lord-harrenhal asked: :P Yeah I know she's really awesome! I wish she would've made the cut off, that would've looked amazing on Jeb's resume since they're trying to sell him. Kate's really nice and her pony's amazing, I'm glad she made it.

fairway-frank asked: That's alright! From what I saw of some of the mediums and smalls that class had quite a variety of scores. But for a lot of those ponies it was good practice for Pony Finals, to be in a big scary ring like that. I wish they'd had that before I went to Pony Finals. The whole time I was watching I was wishing for my pony back off his lease!

lord-harrenhal asked: Do you know by any chance how Eyes Up and Sarah Kate Hanks did in the pony derby or I'm not sure if they did it, but Kate Duke and Mission Accomplished? They're from my barn. :)

fairway-frank asked: Hey Bonnie! thanks for those pictures! I was wondering why I didn't see you around much this weekend but I guess it was because you were over around the pony rings a lot, on like the other side of the show. How was your derby round? I didn't make it over there in time to see the larges go, but it looked like a really fun class, I was jealous!

the-tailored-sportsman asked: Hi, I just wanted to say you are a gorgeous rider! I doubt I could amount to anything you have done, but I wanted to ask a personal question, you dont have to answer it at all! I have a horse on trial named captain, I really want to excel through the hunters, and I feel like captain and I would make a good team! I saw water colors and was just curious to how much you bought him for, he is fancier,...

Anonymous asked: Is it bad for a hunter to get super round? I always see hunters that keep their head pretty much out and high and my horse gets into such a frame. My trainer said he's just a really fancy hunter?

theprincessandthepony asked: hello, love- this is for your anon. my horse does that (lands in a cross canter then swaps in the back) and it's usually when he's getting a little forehandy- when he isn't engaging properly, he isn't aware of his back legs. hope this helps!

Anonymous asked: Hey girl! quick question. Have you ever seen a horse who jumps, and when it lands, the first step away it takes, its cross cantering? But this is just one step. Like maybe this will explain better. He is cantering around on his left lead and jumps, then lands on the left lead in the front and for Just ONE step he is on the right lead in the back, and just swaps it right back to the correct lead....
