To be born in a saddle is a gift some of us take for granted. To ride is a gift given to us by horses that compares to nothing else when it's in your bones, when your horse and you WORK; When you have a dentist to a sore horse you just bought; When a foal is born; When you clear a course; When your horse trots to you bridle in hand in the paddock; When your horse engages for the first time; When she wins her first race; When he takes a carrot from the kitchen window; When your child goes to sleep still in there jodhpurs before dark, filthy horsey dirty THAT'S MAGIC!
