Anna brings her cremello mare named Lilly, into a small arena for a thirty minute ride to get her conditioned for future shows. Sighs, and leads the mare to the middle of ring and releases her stirrup and mounts the mare. " Anna clicked the mare on and softly ques her to go saying" Lets Go Lilly" and then softly squeezes her leg on the mares side. Lilly slowly walks around the arena for a five minute warm up. Anna gives more of a tight squeeze to the Andalusian mare and goes into a soft even collected trot, and begins to do serpentines to practice her flexing and bending. Lilly ears flickering and tail swishing does a bit of a buck going through the last part of the serpentine. Anna tells her woah, and takes a couple of seconds to get her to settle down. Anna stops her mare for a second to let her rest before asking the mare into a canter.
