I think trainers who understand that and can teach each horse the way they learn best are few and far between however. So many get into that production mode and want to reject any horse that doesn't learn within it.Rising Rainbowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419565512869181200.post-10720012883603148132008-05-18T18:08:00.000-04:002008-05-18T18:08:00.000-04:00Hi Linda,<BR/>I know you're busy but stop by and pick up an award when you get the chance.Grey Horse Mattershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419565512869181200.post-40894553586306900022008-05-15T22:19:00.000-04:002008-05-15T22:19:00.000-04:00Thanks, that is Patrick's first colt (now a gelding), Polaris, a four year old that we will be showing this year in the jumper ring.Lindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05854648982659096168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419565512869181200.post-18448721104060983022008-05-14T21:00:00.000-04:002008-05-14T21:00:00.000-04:00You couldn't be more right in your assessment of how trainers train and horses learn. Each horse is an individual and has a different learning curve for their abilities. A good trainer should evaluate each horse on an individual basis and work with what the horse has to offer, eventually it will all come together and you will have a happy horse who is willing to work for whoever rides him. People have got to start realizing that each horse is different and that their personalities should reflect how their training is approached.<BR/><BR/>By the way I just love the horse in the picture, he's just beautiful.Grey Horse Mattershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.com
