Thank you!

Thanks for sharing and keeping it real. I think it's a lot better to show things without editing out the hiccups. You did a good job, and you're a good hand... no doubt about that.

Thank you very much Mark!

Their growth plates have not developed yet at this age, I was told by other trainers to wait until they’re are four to ride, is that true? I like that bit.

Sorry Diane, just noticed I had never answered you. Yes, they are still growing as 2 yr olds but I still think it's OK to start them at that age. I don't ride a 2 yr old very hard. I like to get them broke and kind of just ease along until they are 3 yr olds.
