Arachne & Jeff Saunders
With the end of the year swiftly approaching it was always a good time to take the horses off the track. Things were only going to get more hectic as the year progressed. Arachane had run a phenomenal season, but it wasn't over yet. The past two weeks she'd inched her way from 3rd to 2nd and Jeff was hopeful that her next outing would land them in the winner's circle. Both previous losses had the black bay filly on edge and fiery. Jeff liked the filly better that way.
Fighting for her head, she tugged briefly on the bit, but pulled back when she felt Jeff's iron flex of steel. She surrendered grudgingly as they moved through the underbrush of the meadow. Nick had told Jeff to take the filly off-site and do some endurance riding. When a horse was in a pinch or peaking...it was always a sure-fire remedy to take the horse off-site and build them up in confidence and in body without the horse even noticing.
Alright Ara...let's take a run, shall we? There was a snort in reply as they surged through the overgrown grass. Effortlessly they charged, dirt and turf flying into the air.
