Starting Now!! Natalie and Chase rode up to meet their trainer. But it only took a few minutes to recognize that they were early. "OK Boy lets warm up!" Natalie gently squeezed with her legs and they moved forward. Once on the course trail Natalie decided "Well lets run it once!" Urging him forward the sped over the course graund until the reached the frist jump pulling him up they just managed to clear. And the rest went on just like that.

Mrs. Rockwell arrived soon after to began the lesson. Seeing that the girl were already warmed up she decided to be began.
"Today we will work on some combonations." She said. "Theese rely on the horse listening wholly to its rider, and the rider knowing how to control the mount. Let us began."
"Natalie take Chase of the two smal brush jump."

Natalie and Chase cantered toward the first jump and cleared it simply. Before the second she half-halted him to get his attention and also clearing that one.
