The last 2 jumps got their polls knocked down, but that was okay, at least for now. Lily stopped the friesian stallion and dismounted, leading him to the stables where he could drink some water and eat a bit before continuing. She pat Alejandro's black, strong and sliky neck as he drank and ate, walked over to his side and fixed the saddle belt and stirrups.
Once Alejandro was ready he began nudging his rider. Lily smiled and grabbed his reins, both sides of the saddle, placed a foot in the stirrup and mounted the black friesian, walking him out, a whip in her hand. They soon reached the dressage ring and entered it. Lily moved one foot forward and the other backwards, gripping the reins and pulling them down slightly. Alejandro neighed and sped into a trot, chest and neck popping out as he lifted his front feet, trotting sideways gracefully.
Then they made a few circles and Lily pulled the reins, stopping Alejandro in the middle of the ring and pulled the reins again, but this time a bit up. Alejandro lowered his head, chin sunk to his neck as he began prancing in place, kicking up dust, muscles tensing, coat shining. Lily gripped the reins and shifted them a bit.
