While it's fun to work in a giant 28 acre field, it's hard to work on straightness and geometry! The incremental change is what I live for. I am sure my posts are boring to most, but it's all the little things that are coming together.

He looks great! I think you're doing the right thing by letting him use himself and develope the frame you want through the exercises. So many people try to force the issue, which doesn't usually turn out well with OTTBs.
