Rosie went into the ring ad started laying out some poles a bit in from the track, i put 3 poles then a small cross to start with, The on the other side of the arena i put a combination on the other side, te first was a small cross 2ft , the 2nd was a 2ft straight, the 3rd was a small spread and the last was a wall and i was gonna make them all higher. There were 2 horse stides in between them and i was planning t make it one horse stride.

Ben led Boots down to the ring with a smile on his face. He nodded to Rosie and waited patiently inside the ring for Ally. Looking around, Ben took in the poles and jumps, and mentally grimaced. He'd done jumping before, but he was more of a western guy. "You got this, bud," he murmured, giving Boots an affectionate slap on the shoulder. He'd jumped higher than this before, anyway. He just hadn't jumped in a while, which was his problem. His smile never faltered though, nobody else would be able to tell that he was nervous.

Ally's heart sunk slightly as thy approached the ring.She was more a wesetrn gal.I mean,Sunset was |Hano.So they'd be allright with jumping.Just she'd wanted to do western. Camly and casually,she led Sunset in the ring and flashed a smile at Ben.

Rosie smiled "Hey guys, sorry to disapoint you Ally, i didn't really know you wanted to do western, Anyway don't worry Ben" Rosie could tell that Ben was a little nervous "We will we doing everyone's standards an we will be raising the jumps and doing a bit of western at the end".

Ben flashed Ally an encouraging smile as she entered. She looked a little disappointed. Inside, he secretly hoped that she was a Western chick. Every other girl he'd met was into fancy dressage and showjumping, they all thought Western riding was sloppy. He gave Boots a tickle under the chin, then smiled to Rosie. "I'm not worryin," he said, grinning lazily. "I'm ready for anything." He smiled and stood quietly next to his gelding.

(Guys you're starting to leave me behind again, remember to wait for everyone before you continue the thread -.- )
Ben nodded, then grinned when Ally mentioned her loving Western. 'My kinda girl,' he thought to himself, still smiling as he swung easily up onto his tall gelding. He stretched his feet down in the stirrups and pushed Boots into a lazy walk. The gelding sighed, as if a lesson was too much for him, and grudgingly walked to the outside of the ring. Ben nodded to Ally and winked as she trotted past him.

"Umm.... you can after you've done your walk and trot and a little canter then you can do what you want for 10 minutes while i double check the jumps, ok" I said smiling.

Sighing, she asked Sunzet to trot, knowing she had to tighten up on manners.She got him working nicely around for a couple of laps then worked on a collected,then normal,then slightly extended canter.

(Seriously!!! Gah im getting to the point where I'm just gonna give up...you guys are in a different timezone to me and I actually CANT post at the same time as you, so PLEASE just WAIT for me!!)
Ben nodded and pushed Boots into a faster walk, then watched Ally as she rode around the ring. She was good, he had to admit to himself. He smiled as she finished riding and then he pushed his gelding into a trot. Boots started to jog, but Ben pushed him up a little more so he was in a nice pace. He sat to the gelding's trot, taking him about halfway around the ring, then pushed his outside leg back a little and squeezed. Boots burst into a rocking lope, and Ben rolled with his horse as they travelled around the ring. He sat deeper when they neared Ally and Sunset, and Boots slowed. "Whoa," Ben murmured, bringing the gelding back to a walk. "Atta boy," he said with a smile.

"Very nice Ben, now were each going to do a couple of laps each in canter, Ally you can go first, Ben please come and stand in the middle and you can go after Ally" I said smiling "Ok Ally,first of all i want you to do a collected canter along te short sides and then extend along the long side of the arena, second lap i'd like you to do the opposite please, Ben watch cearfully, you'll be doing this after".

Ben nodded, and guided Boots into the middle, halting so he could watch Ally and Sunset go around the arena. He dropped his reins on Boots' neck while they waited, and the gelding stretched out his neck thankfully.

Ally snorted. " I just did my collected and extended canters. Im not very happy to do them again. But, if you insists......" She sighed. She knew what she would do, and she knew it would annoy rosie.
She pushed Sunset into a nice repetitie lope, not kicking to get into a canter. She lazily moved her leg to ask for extended lope, which was pretty impossible, and watched as Sunset morbidly obayed.

"Don't be so lazy and imature Ally, just because i ask you to do it again it doesn't mean you don't do it proberbly,now Ally you can come and watch while Ben does him and you can do it again,maybe you'll be able to see how to do it proberly if you watch Ben, off you go Ben" I said smiling at him and not very happy with Ally.

(Yeah, but peanut, it does get really boring waiting, so can we just try to wait for you but still post when we get on or the post falls behind.?)
Ally snorted." You want me to do it again? How stupid are you?" Ally sighed, knowing she was going to say"Don't call me an idiot,"or "Mind your language."
Ally laughed to herself. She pushed sunset into a nice canter,collected, she then extended and collected the canter as told to do so.
