Violet's Story
CURRENT RIDER LEVEL: Intermediate <br/><br/>Violet is a 2010 grade mare who stands at 15.1 hands tall and weighs 1,098 lbs. Violet is an opinionated mare.

Violet stands quietly for the farrier and she stands tied for grooming and tacking. <br/><br/>Violet is very sensitive to saddle fit, If shes uncomfortable with the saddle, she tries to communicate with her rider before overreacting. At first Violet will be reluctant to move forward. If you continue pushing her, she will arch her back and then crow hop.

She is a sensitive and forward ride with a lively trot and a nice canter. Violet gives to pressure very willingly and moves off of seat and leg pressure. She direct reins best, but is very close to fully neck reining. Violet rides very well in the arena, but is happiest on the trail. On the trail, she will follow the lead horse nicely. With more time and experience Violet could be a confident lead horse. New obstacles are scary for Violet but with time and patience, she works through her nerves with minimal issues.
