Sniff… Sniff… [Stands up self-righteously :)] My new-to-me jaded veteran improves every time I ride him and is rewarding beyond my expectations, because he is so delighted to be back in interesting work and not being ridden by a different camp kid every day for six weeks then thrown back in a field for 10 months. (Well, he kind of misses the 24/7 pasture aspects of his former life).

Of course, I don’t think he is what the OP is looking for, but I can never help myself when it comes to geting on a soapbox about the oldies. :slight_smile:

Lol aww I didn’t mean it like that! I mostly got the sense this person has been trying expensive no drama schoolmasters and thus is “not excited” by anything! Working with the OTTB greenies, I might not always guarantee safety but I can guarantee some excitement at the very least! :slight_smile:

Im so glad to hear your guy gets a chance to do some cool stuff after packing around campers, what a good soul he must be.
