Well Cora is coming along slowly, but surely.She was very good and humble today! She loaded in the trailer for me and walked right into a stall for the first time. She has her good moments. She is working well in-hand.She had her front hooves trimmed two days ago and was good for the farrier. I have decided to show her in hand only at Gatorland even though we have been riding her at the barn. I feel it will be the best way to show off her best side. I think she will come around when she can bond with her person and they are not on such a time constraint. I think it is best for her to do this. I know some of my trainer friends from the EMM are doing very well with their horses and I applaud them! I know they will do great! Cheers, Rebecca
