[QUOTE="Alice, post: 378526, member: 3873"] Stepper, I don't know from beans about breaking any kind of equine. However, I am a firm believer in instinct...and if your instinct told you right off the get go that you should wait another 6 months, I really think you are probably right. We have a wonderful horse now that was pressed too hard as a 2 year old. He was being being trained as a cutting horse, and he apparently sustained an injury that ended his career. What's worse, the injury was neglected. He can be ridden as we ride him...just for pleasure. Had he been allowed a little more time and a lot more attention to the injury, he would have been magnificent. His father is Trashadeous...his grandmother Miss White Trash. I don't know a thing about lineages with horses...but after doing a search, we discovered the horses in our guys background were fabulous and whomever decided to press too hard lost out on a good thing. However, their loss is our gain. We do love our Slightly Trash. Anyway, like I said, give the guy a little more time...like you thought in the beginning. Just my 2 cents. Alice [/QUOTE]
