Outside
Today, three blue barrels were in the outside ring. Z was apprehensive, but touched them and walked around them. When I sat on one, on its side, she would not circle it - too strange!
Backed over cavelleti (lowest position), front and back legs!
Played with walking and trotting over cavelleti in second position. Hesitant with doing both. Trotted/jumped over when going to right, but only went over it happily to left when I stood at her head on her left side. The cavalleti was next to the fence, so maybe need to pull it away, as she has gone over it happily when under saddle.
Canter - went nutso when asked to canter going to left. In retrospect, bad eye was probably scared by the barrels. Was really digging her feet in, and calling to other horses. When I was able to slow her she did four off the floor and reared. Finally got her to trot and come in. Relaxed. Asked for her to canter again and she did fine!
