Second Day To Ride, Third Day With Gus

Today I rode Gus and he was really good. We started off by doing some warm ups: flexing, hip-overs, leg yields, and walking/trotting square corners. After Gus was warmed up, I practiced a walk-trot horsemanship pattern, where I learned how easy and maneuverable he is. Then my trainer got on Gus and she asked him for the lope and he responded well, he has a very slow and beautiful lope. I got on him next, however I wasn't able to get him to lope right away, but later on I was able to.
