The distance riding aspect of our performance horse program has truly been a learning experience!!! Including conditioning, training, hoof care, nutrition, saddle fit, conformation (form vs. function), and everything else I forgot to mention. I would like to thank CR II PurpleHaze for taking me to see all the beautiful trails we have seen together.
