Cassidy Smith|Tags: Finn, Ellie
Cassidy nudged Jazzy into a canter. "Don't mind me" she called out. Then a sudden twist in her memory came back that her new horses would be here. But, not until closer to night time so she had awhile. Then, she focused on her ride. She looked and gave a small amount of spur. The mare looked literally perfect over the jump. She didn't over jump and her knees bent perfectly over it. "Good girl" praised Cassidy rubbing the left side of her neck with her right hand. Then she gave lots of nudges over the houses. It wasn't as pretty but, it still looked decent. Then the next obstacle was a ditch. She still had a bit to go. And, to keep the mare from not thinking much about it she'd need more pace. She gave lots of spur until the mare rose into a light gallop. Quickly, Cassidy went into half seat. And, right before the mare was about to go to the ditch, the mare came to an abrupt stop. Not expecting the mare to slam on the breaks she tumbled forward onto her neck and had lost her stirrups. But, she could ride without stirrups for a minute or two. She made the mare spin around in less then a few seconds after when her position was back and she went and made the mare go into a very fast canter near to gallop back to it. Once again the mare came to a complete stop. But, Cassidy had expected this. She gave a hard kick with the spurs digging them into her sides a little. The mare began to consider and with a tap on the butt hard with the crop she leaped into the water below. "Good girl!" she praised patting the mares neck as she continued to canter and then jumped over the jump you had to jump coming up hill. Cassidy had gripped onto her mane a little to stay on and had a hard time when she leaped staying on but, did very well at staying on in all. Cassidy sighed heavily wiping sweat that had formed. She knew she needed to do it again. So she re-did the tires and the houses which the mare had no problem with. She sent the mare into a light gallop and leaned back a little and went into a full seat as they neared. And, seconds before the mare could consider throwing her she gave a tap with the crop and some spur and the mare took the jump and cantered up the hill and over the up hill jump. "Good girl!" she praised happily. She patted the mare as she began to kick out a little proud of the accomplishment. Quickly, the girl trotted back over and went to a stop. "That was something" she giggled.
