Duchess finally finished eating and saw Lizzy coming over with a saddle. "Oh, so were doing that today" she rolled her eyes as Lizzy groomed her and tossed on her saddle. Duchess loved jumping, but she still wasn't used to having a human up there. She liked Lizzy but everytime she rode, Duchess had to see how hard it would be to ditch her. Sorra saw duchess walking out to the arena and goofily got ready for a show. the second they were out there duchess was wiggling from the mounting block as Lizzy scooted in circles until she finally mounted. "Lizzy, dang duchess, can i have a little mercy?" Lizzy pleaded. They got warmed up and Duchess was feeling fresh. Lizzy asked her for the canter and Duchess broke off into a damn near gallop. "Let's have some fun" Duchess said as she dead stopped and began bucking. Lizzy managed to stay on by some miracle and after successfully making a lap with no bucks, she popped up a tiny crossrail and trotted Duchess in "NoPe" duchess thought as she swerved away last second, leaving Lizzy staring up at her from the ground as Duchess did a victory trot around the arena. "get your butt over here wild one" Lizzy cawed as Duchess reluctanly returned to the mounting block the reins practically aching as Lizzy lead her over. Eventually Lizzy was able to get her over a jump and ended on a good note. Duchess calmly walked into the barn with a goofy smile and plopped her butt in her stall. "Is she serious Clay?" said Lizzy, "She's so sweet on the ground but she turns into the devil when I mount her, It's almost like she's toying with me!"

"Hard to tell.She could be but,who knows.Might just be A,) in heat or B.) just being a mare." Clay had finished tacking up Sorra in her saddleseat gear. "Ok,you gonna let me trim your tail real quick without kicking me?" Sorra snorted. "Really hope thats a yes." Clay quickly trimmed her tail before hopping on and riding saddleseat for a while.

Lizzy shrugged and side eyed duchess before going over and reluctantly squishing her outstretched nose, Duchess liked that, Lizzy had no clue why but she did it anyway. "Duchess, duchess, what am I going to do with you?" She walked on and threw her halter on to turn her out "alright go on...do whatever ya do out there" and the second she slipped that halter off Duchess galloped off bucking as she went "good freaking lord, why'd I have to get the crazy one", Lizzy smiled, shook her head and retreated to the barn

Clay worked on Sorra's hoof placement and on his seat.Sorra picked up a canter just as Clay sat up.Clay fell down with a -THUMP- before getting back up. "Sorry Sorra.That was my fault." He said as he stokd her muzzle.
