• CrookedHalo Posted : 6/30/2010 5:05:59 PM Hi! Im Grace. I have been riding horses for almost 6 years now. I have leased 4 horses, and I currently lease a 6 year old Appendix QH. He is 16.1 hands and Is very sweet. His name is Crooked Halo, aka Rocco. My favorite thing to do is jump. I w/t/c and jump up to 3 foot. I am currently schooling in x country and I am starting to train Rocco in dressage. A couple months ago I started Training a 2 1/2 year old pinto gelding. his name was Rip. I had a great bond with him but sadly he was sold. One of my favorite things to do is have galloping races with my best friend at the barn, Dazzleme. [] LIKE 8 REPLIES 1752 VIEWS LAST POST CROOKEDHALO Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• danastark Posted : 6/30/2010 6:08:54 PM Welcome!  Sounds like Rocco is a good guy.  I LOVE x-country.  My gelding just turned 6 and we're starting dressage and have had a couple x-country clinics that were fun!  When I was younger, my friends and I used to love to race.  My gelding always bucked though when he would pass the other horse and then we'd lose!!  Hope to see you around!

• danastark Posted : 7/3/2010 12:33:11 PM I think when you know your horse and what they will do, it really helps   Used to worry that my current gelding would buck when we cantered, galloped when he was 4-5, but now he's pretty steady, just have to make sure we have room to stop as he's a big guy and not real coordinated at the canter/gallop yet!

• hunterseat Posted : 7/5/2010 9:43:29 PM I always worry about a stumble or stepping in a hole at a gallop.  Cantering doesn't seem to bother me AT ALL.  Maybe I just haven't done enough galloping.
