sky felt the gate open and swing from under her as she was petting the mare she stumbled back and looked at the girl who was grinning at her before she led the mare away she then whent to get ghost she tacked him up and troted him to the lesson everyone looked at her in awe and started talking wondering why a 4 time grand prix winner was there she started to warm up over 3 foot jumps before going over the big ones

Sam led duchess into the arena after sky and began to warm up. she noticed Duchess kept looking at the new stallion, she ignored it and lifted the fences.

==========================================

Duchess easily flew over the 3 foots and 4 foot oxer in the corner. she saw ghost and a her competive nature began to take hold

(made duchess 5 so she can be in competitions and other things lol)

(pfft)

sky gracefuly dismounted to raise the jumps to 5 feet she got back on him and took him around he jumped the jumps with grace almost looking as if he grew wings and flew

Duchess saw the higher jump and sam urged her on, she cleared it nicely and turned to look at ghost. duchess slowed to a gracefull trot, as sky lifted the jump once more

sky bumped them up to 6 foot with one at the end on 7 feet she uged ghost on and he ceared all of them without and falts after she jumped the last one she walked ghost around til her wasnt blowing and put him in his stall with his cooler

Duchess cliped the jump gently but didn'y knock any poles down. sam walked her through the pasture to cool off before putting her in her stall.

Suddenly sam hears duchess pawing at the stall wall and neighing.

ghost walks over and looks at her, towering over duchess. despite this she tries to establish her dominance as head mare. after a while, the two calm down and sam grooms duchess.

ghost looked at duchess his white mane wasnt croped like all the other horses he shook it out after sky took out the runing braid before he looked back at duchess with a nod

Duchess acknoledged him and gave a polite, quiet, nicker.

She thinks to herself, "this may be a welcome change of pace"
